Nitish said, "I take responsibility for the loss. I think we were 15-20 runs short. I should have batted longer at the crease. My dismissal proved to be the turning point. Credit goes to our bowlers. Good sign for the next matches. Their powerplay batting got them the win. Need to do well as a team."
