IPL 2021, We Haven't Been Able To Put Games To Bed: Jos Buttler

Rajasthan Royal's opening batsman Jos Buttler said that his team needs to be consistent if it is to succeed against SunRisers Hyderabad in Sunday's encounter. "It's been a frustrating star

"We know we need to put in consistent performances if we want to have a shot at the playoffs. We need to work hard, it's a tough competition. There are some great teams in here and we need to work hard with our practice and preparations going into the games. Sanju's been very consistent in his messaging and how he wants us to play, express ourselves and make sure we enjoy the tournament," said Buttler.

The experienced batsman also reckons that playing successive afternoon matches might help the Royals.

"We have seen and experienced how the pitch behaved in our last game, and I reckon we have a fair bit of an idea as to what to expect from the conditions now. The pitch looks like it can pretty much remain the same throughout the 40 overs, so we are confident we can take the learnings from our last match and apply ourselves to the best of our abilities tomorrow," he added.
