Deepak Hooda is the Man of the Match 

Smith: 'It just shows that in this game, you are not getting buried. The way the boys played is magnificent. The way the youngster Hooda played is sensational. Faulkner and Morris also struck a few good ones. It's the thing with Royals, we like to blood young Indians and we will keep doing that. It's good to take 2 wins out of 2 and hopefully, we can take this momentum forward.
