Nothing is going right for Mumbai Indians. Elusive success despite changing captains. After losing the first two away matches, the five-time IPL champions lost their first match at home as well. However, the new captain Hardik Pandya is unwilling to give up now. He gave a fight message after the loss to Rajasthan Royals.Hardik has faith in his teammates. His party will surely succeed. “Results sometimes go in your favour, sometimes they don’t. It doesn’t surprise me too much. But as a team we think we have the capacity to do a lot better. We just need to be a bit more disciplined.
You have to be a little braver.”Mumbai’s innings collapsed against Rajasthan. Their innings ended at 125 runs. Hardik said, “There was a time when we thought we could score 150-160 runs. It didn’t happen because I got out. That’s when the turn of the game turned. Rajasthan started the match more. I should have batted better at that time.” Hardik accepted the team’s batting failure and blamed himself for the loss.
The Mumbai skipper did not just express his hope of standing in front of reporters. Later he also sent a message to cricket lovers on social media. He wrote, “There’s only one thing you should know about this team. It’s that we never give up. We’ll keep fighting. We’ll keep going.” The Mumbai skipper posted a picture of Team Hurdle along with this post.
