Tim David became the man of the hour on Sunday night, as he smashed three consecutive sixes in the final over of the IPL 2023 Match 42. With 17 runs required to win in the final over, David hit Jason Holder for three consecutive sixes and handed Mumbai Indians a win by six wickets. The 27-year-old Aussie remained unbeaten after scoring 45 runs in just 14 balls at a strike rate of 321.43.

However, after the Mumbai Indians won the match, Tim David shed his views on his knock and also expressed sympathy for Holder. The big-hitting Australian mentioned it was tough for everyone to bowl at all stages of the match. Here’s what Tim had to say about Jason Holder at the post-match conference.

“It was tough bowling. It was very sweaty to grip the ball. As a batter, you have a feeling when you get the momentum. It was very important that the first ball went for six. It’s a tough role for him [Holder]. I feel for him because it was tough for everyone bowling at all stages,” said Tim David. Holder ended up conceding 55 runs after bowling just 3.3 overs without picking any wickets.
