A pitch for thrills

In response Mumbai Indians managed 245 for 5 and shocked Sunrisers skipper Pat Cummins.
“Not until we bowled (laughs),” Cummins stated when requested if he thought 278 was gettable.
“It was a tremendous recreation. [Abhishek Sharma] Really spectacular striker of the ball. In the IPL you play underneath numerous stress, however the freedom he has performed with was superb.
“You never play for 270 but we wanted to be really positive and with the impact player rule you have more batting as well. It’s obviously a good wicket so you know you’re going to go for a few boundaries, but just have to stick to the plans. I think cutters worked.”
Maphaka backed
Mumbai Indians skipper Hardik Pandya wouldn’t blame his bowlers for the defeat and credited the mentality of younger Kwena Maphaka.
Maphaka took a pounding however Pandya stated that he was inspired by what he noticed from the younger South African.
“”The wicket was good however 277, regardless of how good or dangerous you bowl, if the opposition get 277 which means they batted very properly,” Pandya stated.
“[Bowlers] were good. It was tough out there. Close to 500 runs were scored so the wicket was helping the batters. We could have tried a few different things, but we have a young bowling attack and I liked what I saw today. If the ball goes this much in the crowd, it’s definitely different to run around and complete the overs in time. Everyone batted really well, counting Tilak, Ro, Ishan. There are just few things we need to do right and we’ll be alright. [On Maphaka] I think he was fantastic you know. Coming into your first game and getting overwhelmed by this kind of crowd and he showed he had the heart. Even though he went for runs, he looked alright, he wanted to back his skillsets and that’s something that’s fantastic. He has the skillset, just that he needs some game time.”
