“I followed the match online but very sad to suffer another defeat at home.Let me say this,Super four is not my main objective, if the coaches cannot get result without my presence in the team, then their job is at stake. My main aim is to market players and I am in the process of finalising a player to start his professional career soonest.
“The Super four target should be the responsibility of our coaches, not me. It’s their responsibility. I don’t need to be with the team, my main priority is the business side of it which I am fully responsible. It’s up to our coaches to take responsibility of failure and success. Meanwhile I see the league as more of developmental, of which better results is also part of it. I believe that with this defeat, they ll bounce back stronger in their subsequent matches,”he said.
