Reflecting on their match-winning performances, Hyderabad's pace bowling coach <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/t20-world-cup-2026-varun-aaron-feels-this-batting-position-would-be-ideal-for-suryakumar-yadav-23613053" rel="nofollow">Varun Aaron</a> said that it was a dream come true moment for the team.
"To see two debutants come out and bowl the way they did tonight was a dream come true for the team," he said.
He also said that the game plan was to stay committed to the execution and labelled their performances as "massive".
"The key was for us to just commit to our execution and that's exactly what we did right from the get-go. My only plan for them was just to enjoy the game. Because you debut only once in any form of cricket and I feel from where they have come, both the bowlers, and what they have done today is massive," said Aaron.
In an attempt to chase a target of 217 runs, the Royals were bowled out for 159 runs in 19 overs.
