What did Hardik Pandya say after the match?

After winning the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya said during the post match presentation,

“It’s always good to win, the way we won was fantastic. The impact player has given us the opportunity to use an extra bowler if needed. It is comfortable for me too.”

He further said, “The way Ro (Rohit Sharma) and Kishan batted, giving a platform to the incoming batsmen, it was important for us to finish it early. We didn’t talk about it, but that’s the beauty of this team, the players know what to do.”

Hardik Pandya called these players heroes

Hardik Pandya praised Jasprit Bumrah and Suryakumar Yadav after winning the match. Both these players played brilliantly against RCB.

“I am lucky to have Bumrah in my team. Now he has shown such game often. He also practices a lot. He has no dearth of experience and confidence. At the same time, when Surya scored his half-century, I said welcome back to him. I have also been the captain of the opposition against him, it is difficult for him to set the field. He can play shots in any corner of the field. There are some areas where I have never seen anyone playing.”
