New Delhi: The loss to Delhi Capitals notwithstanding, Kings XI Punjab coach Mike Hesson reckons that ‘destiny is in our own hands’ as far as making the IPL playoffs is concerned.
The visiting Kings XI Punjab suffered a five-wicket defeat at the hands of Delhi Capitals in the return leg match. The mid-table team now has five wins and as many defeats from 10 outings in the ongoing 12th edition of the league.
“We played good cricket and there was probably only one game, in which we were a bit disappointing, and that was against RCB when we were below our own standards, but outside of that we have actually played very well, I think,” Hesson said.
The former New Zealand coach added, “The destiny is in our own hands and, when we come to the back end of the tournament, that’s what you want.”
“And you know that if you play well you give yourself good chance of winning. We gave ourselves a decent chance tonight. And I am very proud in terms of the way we played in conditions that were challenging, the way we hung in there, was a good effort,” he said.
