Mitchell Marsh said Shardul Thakur put a platform for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in his Victory of five goals over Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) On Thursday in the collision of the Indian Premier League (IPL) at the International Rajiv Gandhi stadium in Hyderabad.
Shardul did not let the opening duo Abhishek Sharma and Travis head build pressure on the LSG pitch. The Speedster, who joined Super Giants as a replacement for Mohsin Khan, got the early goals of Abhisheka and Ishan Kishan, after which he returned to get the goals of Abhinav Manohara and Mohammed Shami.

It was Shardul’s charm of 4-0-34-4, which limited SRH to 190 to nine, then LSG romed home with 23 balls to save.
“I thought Shardul had bowed exceptionally well and set the tone for us soon. Against Batsmen like Abhishek and Travis Head, you were right under pressure, but Shardul used his experience for great effect.
“Prince was really impressive”
Marsh also had a praise for Prince Yadava, who got a key head goal to end up with 4-0-29-1.
“First, I am really proud of the prince in my second game. He was impressive and I am sure he gives him a lot of confidence, as I mentioned the next day, we told him to rely on his depth in this long tournament.”
Super giants will be against Kings Kings Shreyas Iyera on Tuesday 1st April in the cricket stadium Bharat Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana in Lucknow.
