We’ll set our strategies for them.”
The Attacker also added that he will look to be more vocal in the upcoming games, “It’s been great to contribute to the team.

Therefore, I’ll also try to cheer my teammates on while carrying out my game in our upcoming matches.”
Speaking ahead of their game against the Thunderbolts, who are at the second place in the standings, Ahmedabad’s Angamuthu said, “All the departments have been contributing to the team’s success this season. However, our game wasn’t up to the mark yesterday (against Bengaluru Torpedoes) as compared to our first three matches. We are looking to develop our blocking skills before our game against Kolkata Thunderbolts.”
