#VIDEO #Hard #work #selfbelief #helped #elevate #game #Padikkal">VIDEO | Hard work and self-belief helped me elevate my game, says Padikkal Royal Challengers Bengaluru batter Devdutt Padikkal said a lot of hard work over the last few seasons has helped elevate his game, while also crediting the franchise management for his growth as a batter.
Padikkal struck a stroke-filled 50 off 29 balls as the defending champion piled up a daunting 250 for 3 against the Chennai Super Kings.
“Simply put it is a lot of hard work and a lot of self-belief that’s helped me get there. It wasn’t easy initially to make that change because it was something that I had to really change from the foundation that I have in terms of the type of cricket I wanted to play growing up, that’s a change that I have made consciously,” he told the media after the game.
“RCB and the whole support staff have been really great and have been guiding me in the right way,” he added.

Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming lamented his side’s poor execution after their third straight defeat of the season on Sunday.
CSK went down to defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru by 43 runs at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium while chasing a daunting 251-run target.
“Today we didn’t execute, I think we were a bit passive in the last game throughout the last innings, the fast bowler in particular, it was much better in the first half today, but just the execution under pressure and against someone like Tim David who was very destructive, you have to be absolutely spot on and once we sort of fell behind and he got the rhythm and there was that no ball as well, so lets not forget that,” he told the media after the game.
“We did some good things early on, created some chances, we unfortunately just couldn’t get a couple more wickets for our efforts and in the end, unfortunately, lost our shape in the back end. It’s a good wicket and I think if we were able to held our nerves and execute a bit better 210-220 would have been in our grasp,” he noted.
