Punjab Kings lost to Kolkata Knight Riders in the 21st match of the IPL 2021 by 5 wickets. After the match, PBKS captain KL Rahul said, “It is never nice to be on the losing side. Don't know what to say. We should have adapted better. We could have applied lot more with the bat. Expect the boys to be smarter. Some soft dismissals have cost us the game. It was a bit two paced. Kept a little up down. Was tough to assess what are the high-risk shots here. It is expected of good teams to adapt quicker. “
“We need to keep our heads higher and keep trying. Bishnoi's catch was stunning, especially when you have a coach like Jonty Rhodes. He puts us to tough tests and sees how every boy reacts. The training rubs on during match situations. Hopefully we can keep building and get better. “
