RR’s head coach Rahul Dravid defends the side ahead of the mega clash with Chennai Super Kings.
“A lot of it in these situations now with the Impact Player, you actually do get your bowling and batting options with the 12 players. To be honest, if you look at our last game, we were able to play seven bowling options. We actually had seven bowling options in the playing XI, so we covered in that department,” says Dravid.
“With the batting as well, I think we were able to extend our batting using [Wanindu] Hasaranga right up to number eight, Shimron [Hetmyer] came at eight and then we had Jofra [Archer] bat at No. 9. So, I think there is enough depth. The role with the Impact Players, I think the role of the all-rounder now is really diminished.” adds Dravid.
