"He is always asking questions, he is always wanting to develop his game. So, from a coaching point of view, it is pleasure to work with people who have an open mind and are prepared to grow, as people," Moody said at the post-match press conference here," the burly Australian added.
With back-to-back victories, Hyderabad have joined New Zealand's Otago Volts in the main draw while Wolves from Pakistan and Kandurata Maroons from Sri Lanka have been eliminated.

He is very clear on what he wants to achieve, he is an extremely hard worker, he is very thorough in his preparation and when you have someone who has those sort of professional standards along with a lot of natural ability, they are destined to perform consistently at higher level."

Moody also felt Dhawan was lucky get an opportunity to show what he is capable of.
"It's opportunity as well, there is a lot of good players out there in the world, who do the right thing and work hard, but don't get opportunity. When he got his opportunity here in Mohali, he took it with both hands and hasn't looked back.
