TIL Desk Sports/ Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma was all praise for his team’s collective effort in beating Delhi Capitals by 57 runs in the first qualifier of the Indian Premier League, in Dubai, on Thursday. The defending champions proved a class above to enter their sixth final of the T20 extravaganza.
“Yes, I guess so,” Rohit said, when asked if it was his team’s best performance in this year’s IPL. “The way we came out today, with that intent after losing the wicket in the second over; the way (Quinton) De Kock and Surya (Suryakumar Yadav) took the momentum towards us, was great to watch, and then the way we finished towards the back-end was magnificent,” Sharma said, at the post-match presentation. “And again, with the ball (the performance) was absolutely clinical as well.
We were very clear with the plans on what we wanted to achieve, and, yes, a perfect result for us,” Sharma said.
