Hardik Pandya’s post is indeed a motivational message, aiming to reignite the spirits of fans who may be losing hope in Mumbai Indians’ success in the ongoing season.
After the match, speaking at the post-match presentation, Hardik acknowledged that his wicket was the turning point in the game, which swung the momentum in favor of Rajasthan Royals.
“Yes, a tough night, we didn’t start the way we wanted to start. I wanted to counter, we were in a decent position to get us around 150-160, but my wicket allowed them to get back more into the game, I needed to do a lot more. It’s okay, we didn’t expect such a surface, but you can’t always have it as a batter, it’s nice at times for the bowlers to have a say.”
Hardik added: “It’s all about doing the right things, (correct) results happen at times, at some other times it doesn’t. As a group, we believe we can do a lot better, but we need to be a bit more disciplined and show a lot more courage,” Hardik had said in the post-match presentation ceremony.”
With three consecutive defeats in the ongoing IPL 2024 season, Mumbai Indians currently occupy the bottom position on the points table, with zero points.
