"High time for the top 3 to perform. I just wanted to stay on the wicket and play my shots. Really happy that it came off today. We had the opportunity to win the game for SRH, really happy I'm standing here. We had plans to see Jofra off," Pandey told host broadcaster Star Sports at the post-match presentation. Archer had dismissed David Warner (4) and Jonny Bairstow (10) but Pandey and Shankar ensured that SunRisers Hyderabad does not lose wickets in a cluster.
