Not just Patel, even the Titans players lauded Miller's fight after the game in a heartwarming gesture. 

After the loss, DC captain reckoned that they could have been smarter in the chase. He also pointed out the timing of the wickets and claimed that did not help. 

“Both teams played very good cricket. In such close games, you can point out many things. But I think during the chase, we could have been smarter. The timing of those wickets was crucial — had that not happened, we could have finished it earlier,” he said.

Miller can surely feel proud about his effort and his knock would also make him confident going ahead in the tournament. 

Can DC Bounce Back? 

After two back to back wins, this was Delhi's first loss of the season. Following the narrow loss, the Capitals find themselves pushed to the fourth spot in the points table. They next travel to Chennai to face Chennai Super Kings on April 11. Chennai are a side that is still looking for their first win and hence it would not be easy for the Capitals.
