MI vs SRH: Captains Thoughts
Hardik Pandya (Mumbai Indians Captain): "Ah, we are going to bat first. Looks like a good breezy evening. It's still cold compared to generally. So, I don't think dew is something we are going to keep in mind. We will look to bat well and then see how much we can score.
(What did they do during the 5-6 days break?) I think it was important for all of us to just reset, not get too complicated, just get a good couple of boys evening and also a good couple of sessions. We just ticked all the boxes, refreshed ourselves and now we are excited for the game.
Pat Cummins (Sunrisers Hyderabad Captain): "[Thoughts on bowling first] We would have bowled. A little bit of tackiness in the wicket. So, happy to bowl first.
[Chat before this game] I think it's about resetting your expectations each game. This pitch might ask you different questions and it's about assessing the conditions.
