I started my journey here, and I’m very grateful for everything I’ve experienced over the years. It still surprises me sometimes, the way things have unfolded for me. I think we’ve taken a lot of positives from all four games.
While one game didn’t go our way, we’ve also learned from the wins, aiming to rectify any mistakes. We’re focused on improving with each game and looking forward to what’s ahead.We have made three changes, N. Tushara, N. Wadhera, and P. Chawla come in for A. Madhwal, R. Shepherd, and S. Gopal.”

You know the nature of this tournament; it’s a long season. When momentum is going well, you need to keep going. We had a 5-day gap, so a little reset and all about focusing on the process and leaving the result there.
We have played a lot of games here, so we know how the wicket behaves and what we have to do with batting and bowling, respecting each and every opponent. We know Mumbai really well. They come back to the tournament really hard; we have to be a bit aware of that and play our best cricket. The IPL has changed wonderfully and is going up and down. Just focus on the controllables.
