Rovman at the other end was amazing: David Warner
After winning the game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, David Warner was named Player of the Match for his unbeaten 92 runs and also shared a lot in the post-match presentation.
"It's a really nice wicket, I've had some success here. I knew if I played my strokes, it was going to come off. Challenging here in Mumbai with the humidity and I was cooked there towards the back end, I am getting older.
Having Rovman at the other end was amazing. I was glad he was at the other end," said David Warner as quoted by Cricbuzz.
"I actually saw Jos play one recently, so I practised that in the nets. I bat right-handed in the nets against the spinners sometimes. You got to try these shots.

I premeditated to try and reverse it, but when it was bowled there, I just tried to back-cut it and it came off. I said to him (Powell), I am running two no matter what and I don't care if I get run out. I am just glad he could clear the fence," he added.
However, during the game, Rovman Powell was in fabulous form with the bat, smashing the likes of the opposition bowlers all around the park. Moreover, he also smashed the fastest ball of 157 kmph bowled by Umran Malik for a boundary towards the long-off region.
