IPL 2019: Continuity Allows us to Play With Freedom: Billings

Written by Vipin Darwade

Chennai Super Kings batsman Sam Billings on Tuesday said the collective effort was behind the team’s triumph in the 2018 edition of IPL as different players stepped up at various occasions.

“What stood out for me was that ours was a collective effort,” the England cricketer, who made his debut for CSK last season, was quoted as saying on franchise’s official website.

“Of course, there were a couple of standout performances like (Ambati) Rayudu’s consistency and (Shane) Watson’s brilliance. Although, actually, if you look at the different games that we won, it was different players at different times stepping up,” Billings said.

Billings is training with the rest of the squad at the M A Chidambaram stadium here ahead of the IPL-12 opener between CSK and Royal Challengers Bangalore on March 23.
