A bowling performance like this since 2008. He’s an uncapped player who hasn’t even played much, but taking five wickets in a Qualifier?
Sensational performance.” Former West Indies captain Chris Gayle praised Green’s performance, saying on JioCinema: “Cameron Green batted.
Superbly. He was first very deliberate, it was fantastic. It was a good wicket to bat on, the ball was actually coming on to the bat. Cam Green actually.
Set the tone and set the momentum for Mumbai Indians batting.” Gayle also spoke of the forthcoming GT-MI clash, saying: “They’re going to GT’s.
Hometown, so that’s going to be a big plus for them. That’s something we have to take into consideration. But the momentum is now with Mumbai.
Is Mumbai going all the way to the final? If they do, CSK doesn’t want to see a team like Mumbai.”
