We have two more games and are hoping that we will give our best."After his stupendous performance with the bat, Anuj added feathers to his performance with a brilliant catch and a runout.Describing the catch, he added, "Three of us called for it. Parney (Wayne Parnell) was claiming the catch, I saw Maxi (Glenn Maxwell) also running in, but eventually I went for it. As for the run out, it was my day and it went really well," stated Anuj.Glenn Maxwell who played a crucial role in the RCB's victory by scoring a quick-fire 50 was all praise for Anuj."I had a really nice partnership in the beginning with Faf which gave just enough platform for Anuj and Bracewell to finish off from there. This is exactly what we had been looking for, some sort of finishing touch. Anuj was fantastic today," commented Glenn Maxwell on GameDay.RCB's Director of Cricket Operations, Mike Hesson, also praised Rawat's performance and revealed that he always believed in his talent.He commented, "Anuj Rawat's performance will certainly lift the morale of the team.
