For Me, Process Is Important: Krunal Pandya

“I was so thankful that I got his (Pollard) wicket otherwise he would have eaten my brain throughout my life because he got me out and now that it’s 1-1 at least he will speak less. Honesty is important in the team and these guys (coaching staff) are doing pretty well and ensuring everyone is getting better. For me process is important and we want to accept our mistakes and learn from it,” Krunal said.

In the meantime, he was all commendation for his skipper KL Rahul who crushed his second IPL century this season. The man is in the quest for RRs Jos Buttler who is as of now beating the run graphs.

“It was a terrific knock, leading from the front and got us to a respectable total, so all credit goes to him (KL Rahul). I had no idea about how the wicket was going. When we batted, KL was mentioning that the wicket was stopping a bit so we tried to bowl slower and ball that hard length for the new batters,” he added.

Mumbai Indians Loss 8 On The Trot

Rahul’s 103 not out off 62 balls was bound with 12 fours and four sixes. The second-most noteworthy scorer was Manish Pandey with 22 as different batters were unable to offer anything to the scorecard.

For MI, Jasprit Bumrah was the best bowler with 1 for 31 of 4 overs while Kieron Pollard had the best figures with 2 for 8 out of two overs. Eventually, the objective of 169 ended up being weighty as Mumbai Indians were unable to pursue the target which prompted their eighth progressive loss in the season-a first.
