IPL 2022: It Is About Getting That One Win Out Of The Way: Jaydev Unadkat

IPL 2022: Mumbai Indians have lost all their 6 games in the IPL so far. There is still a possibility that they might qualify for the playoffs if they win all their remaining games, but that’s just a possibility on the paper. The season is all but over for the five-time champions. Jaydev Unadkat, their pacer though sees this situation in some other way as he believes that it’s about getting a couple of things right before MI starts winning games.

The Pressure Should Push Us To Do Well: Jaydev Unadkat

Speaking to the media ahead of their game against Chennai Super Kings, Unadkat said, “We are looking to put things right, get the missing pieces in to get off the mark. It’s about winning that one game, about doing a couple of things slightly differently maybe.”

He further added: “MI has seen the lows, we have won trophies. To come out of this, you need to be calm in your mind. All of us need to be on the same page there, the pressure is gonna be there, it’s about how to be calm and make those decisions on-field. The pressure should push us to do well.”

Mumbai Indians’ biggest concern this season has been their bowling. They went all out for Jofra Archer in the mega auctions knowing fully well that he won’t be available for the 2022 season, yet experts believed that MI has got deals in Tymal Mills, Riley Meredith, and Daniel Sams. But Riley Meredith has not played a single game till now, while Mills and Sam haven’t been at their best.

When asked about the bowling woes of the team, Unadkat said: “Our discussions have been about having the right plans for the right players, but executing them is another thing. It’s always important to be spontaneous in the middle, and take your own decisions, which we did not do in a couple of games. We have to put in a collective effort and do it as a team and a bowling unit, Sachin and Zak keep saying that we have to believe in our skills and strike when the opportunity arises. To do that, we have to have the belief. I have to believe I can give a match-winning performance and that self-belief is important for me,” he added.

Mumbai Indians fans will be hoping that MI changes things around quickly as if they don’t do it now, it’d be too late.
