00:00I think after that inning, I am very confident, by the way, but my confidence doesn't rely on the score.
00:07It always depends on my process and how I train in my practice.
00:12Because if I keep confidence in the end result, I keep my confidence high in the practice only.
00:30Out of the four matches, you have won the three away matches. Now the last four matches you lost.
00:37So what do you feel? And Delhi Capitals has been doing so well in the three matches.
00:40So what is the team thinking of tomorrow's matches and what do you think your prospects would be?
00:45I think we are looking at a great challenge because we are also on a high note,
00:50because we also have won three games out of four and they are really doing well.
00:56But we are on the upper hand because we have played all away games.
01:01They played some home games and they have won it, but we have the more advantage
01:06because we have played away games and we won the difficult games.
01:09The batting line of which we have and everyone have chip in somehow.
01:13So we are on a high note. I think in playing 11 everyone has performed well,
01:17but in DC I think they are relying on some few players.
01:20So it will be good to see this challenge I think we are taking as a new challenge.
01:25Jadish, in the batting line-up there has been a very clear plan of everyone going from ball one
01:35irrespective of whether you are the opener or whether you are coming in at number five or number six.
01:40Just tell us about your specific role and how has the team bought into this approach
01:45and how are you guys working?
01:47I think we are playing very smart cricket, not like we are just going and whacking every baller.
01:52We are playing smart cricket. We know everyone's strength, the batting line-up.
01:57We know each other from very well and the team management has given proper role.
02:01Jitesh Sharma will go to certain ballers and the team sword will look after some ballers.
02:07That's kind of strategy we have.
02:09So we are going very smartly.
02:11We are not trying to dominate blindly.
02:15We are taking every decision smartly.
02:18That's the thing.
02:20Jitesh, can you take us through your experience with working with Dinesh Karthik,
02:25both in terms of a wicket-keeper as well as a batsman?
02:30It's been a great journey till now because in off-season I really work hard with him
02:35and I think the whichever shot which I am playing right now,
02:39it's the replica of he used to play and he is trying to create me in a new player
02:44because he believes in me that I can play all around the circle 360 angles.
02:51But I am really enjoying to see myself in a new role.
02:56While I am playing those shots I am very happy because I have never tried those shots
03:00and I am able to execute and all the backing he has for me.
03:04So it's a wonderful journey.
03:06I am very excited still now.
03:08Jitesh, independent of tomorrow's match, last match,
03:12you faced Boombra's last match.
03:14How did you feel about bowling tolerance?
03:18No sir, I feel like he is coming to the ICC Champions Office right now.
03:22Because you know he is just with Boombra.
03:24He is so accurate.
03:26He is a proper fit.
03:28I think he has done a proper test.
03:30I mean he is on the peak right now also.
03:32I can say it.
03:34Hi Jitesh.
03:35RCP has always been a slow starter.
03:37Losing a lot of games and then winning.
03:40What do you think of team environment this time around?
03:44I think nothing.
03:46It is not a slow starter.
03:48But I think execution is very good this time.
03:51I mean every team tries to win.
03:53No one wants to start their season.
03:56But I think this year we are able to execute everything whatever we are planning.
04:01Basically that's the difference.
04:02Nothing.
04:03It's nothing.
04:04We are not doing anything magical.
04:05We don't have any magical solution.
04:07So we are trying to execute our plan.
04:09That's it.
04:10Jitesh, aapka pichla season wasn't you know as good as your other seasons.
04:16Yes.
04:17Aapne bola ki you know in the off season you worked a lot with Dinesh Karthik.
04:20Yes.
04:21Can you just take us through the kind of work that you put in that's kind of helping you
04:25and giving you the rewards now?
04:26Yes.
04:27I think last year performance was my mental thing.
04:31And I have told everyone about that because I was not mentally you can say in the game
04:37that moment because I was thinking of future things.
04:40But right now when I met Dinesh Bhai he told me that it's a human error.
04:44It's not a rocket science.
04:46It doesn't happen to anyone.
04:48It happens to everyone.
04:49So it's fine.
04:50And when he saw my batting the way I bat how I try to dominate.
04:54Means how I look forward to all the games.
04:57I am someone who always look for the win.
04:59Mujhe runs nikalne ka mjhe yeh.
05:01Woh yeh nahi hai.
05:02Mujhe main jitane ka sab se zyada craze hai.
05:04Mujhe woh cheez bhot pasand hai.
05:06To I think woh hunhne find out kiya.
05:08Jiseh kus shots hai joh mereh ismeh lacking hai.
05:10To woh hunhne find out kiya.
05:12And uspeh hi kaam kar rahe somehow.
05:14Still we are in the process.
05:16Yes.
05:17Jitesh just from a keeper's point of view.
05:21What's it been like seeing Josh Hazelwood and Bhubaneshwar Kumar bowl in tandem.
05:27And kis tarah se hunhne hane line and length rakhye hai.
05:31Like.

05:43You have to understand ki yeh game mein yeh requirement.
05:45And then how they have to mold according to the game.
