MI vs PBKS | After suffering a nine-wicket defeat against Punjab Kings, Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma said on Friday that the pitch was not too difficult to bat on but his team once again failed to score big. Despite Rohit's 52-ball 63, Mumbai's team could score just 131 runs for six wickets. The Punjab Kings easily achieved this target with 14 goals remaining.

The captain of the Mumbai Indians said at the award ceremony after the match, "We failed to score a much bigger score." I still believe that this wicket is not too difficult for batting. You see how the (Punjab) Kings registered a win by saving nine wickets ". He said that the team's batting was going down due to which they failed to score a competitive score in the second consecutive match. If you run 150-160 runs. If you make, you can hold on to the match. We failed to do so in the last two matches.

He credited Punjab bowlers, saying, "Their bowlers bowled well in the power play." Ishaan Kishan and I were also trying to land a big shot but we were not successful. We have to understand better batting and bowling in difficult conditions. Lokesh Rahul, who scored an unbeaten innings of 60 runs in the match, said that things got easier due to the experienced Chris Gayle being on the field. The Punjab captain said, "It becomes difficult to play against the dry ball here in the middle overs, but Gayle showed good confidence in this side, he knows which bowler to take an aggressive stand against.

Rahul was criticized by the experts after deciding to bowl after winning the toss but he proved everyone wrong by winning the match. Rahul said, "I had a long talk with the coach that we have to bowl first before winning the toss." We had heard that there will be dew here, it was not known how much will remain, but it was good. It was not easy to play against a dry ball though. There was also a problem stealing a run. However, things got easier with Gayle's presence.

He praised young leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi, who played the first match of the season, and said that the youth in our team performed well. Deepak Hooda is doing well. Shah Rukh Khan has taken advantage of the opportunity and today Bishnoi showed a brilliant game. Anil Bhai (Kumble) worked with Ravi (Bishnoi) and today he was brilliant here. He got our team big wickets.
