PKL 2019 | Aim is to improve with every passing game, says Vikash Kandola
Haryana raider Vikash Kandola has said that he has an aim of improving his game with every passing match that he plays in the league. Their coach Rakesh Kumar also stressed on the fact that there is a room for improvement for the players in the Haryana Steelers team in the ongoing tournament.
Haryana Steelers managed to get the better of Patna Pirates 35-26 and Vikash Kandola played an extremely important role in that game. The raider managed to get a Super 10 and is looking in good touch in the seventh season. Kandola was injured and started late in the seventh edition but in the two matches that he has played so far, he has performed for his side. He spoke about his return and the team’s win at the press conference on Wednesday.
The aim is to improve with every passing game. My return to the team has added some versatility to the raiding unit and that has been crucial to our performances over the past two games. However, despite playing well, we can definitely strive to improve on certain aspects and play even better in the upcoming games,” Vikash Kandola was quoted as saying by the PKL website.
Coach Rakesh Kumar, who had played for the Pirates before, was happy after beating a team which had a player like Pardeep Narwal. It was a combined team effort with Kandola leading the raiding unit perfectly but Rakesh is of the opinion that there are still some rooms for improvement.
“It’s good that we beat an excellent team, but I’m not going to lie and therefore I will admit that there’s room for improvement. We could have negotiated with the final 10 minutes of the game in a better fashion. But, the biggest takeaway for me is that it was a total team effort today. No solo efforts. All tackles were well-timed and well-executed. And to me, that’s the biggest positive. But, there is always room for improvement.
“An excellent team that’s in scintillating form. It’s very important that we prepare well to stop them. Keeping Pawan Sehrawat out is going to be the key for us. If we can keep him on the bench, we'd have a good chance in that game,” the Haryana coach explained.
