I was totally engrossed in the [England] series and that is the reason why I sort of waited till the end of the series."

Speaking on the arduous task of managing an IPL team he said," You don't have much time to work on the players during the IPL. It is about man-management of players of various international credentials, managing young players and finding the right balance."

Expatiating about his time with the franchise, Bangar said," It's been a fabulous journey. It gives me immense satisfaction to see the players whom I picked - from when they were in their formative years - to benefit from the exposure."
