Green truly talked about even skipper Rohit Sharma suggested newcomers in dressing room that the five-time champions are sluggish starters.

“We obviously had a slow kind of start but you want to obviously start peaking at this time of the year, you don’t want to be playing good cricket and slowing down now but peaking at right time,” the big Australian, who has scored 262 runs and introduced six wickets, talked about.

“They have been best side all tournament, may be a bit of slip up against CSK but they are the best side and they have everything covered — opening batters are flying and spin twins (Rashid Khan and Noor Ahmed) have been hard to get away. They are a tough team but we will go there with all optimism,” Green talked about.
