Even if you are a cocky outfit you still have to be on top of your game. Even a minor slip can prove disastrous. That’s what happened to five-time winners Mumbai Indians (MI) in their penultimate league match at the Ekana Stadium on Tuesday night. They were in control for a major part of the match, but somehow allowed Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) to come back strongly and give themselves a stunning blow which has now put a question mark on their chances of making the Playoffs.
Talking about the disappointing loss, MI’s bowling coach Shane Bond said: “Just two periods in the game for us where, first with the ball, the last four overs were poor, and a little period in the middle of our batting where two of our most important batters fell in succession. Those two little periods of cricket combined to lose us the game by a handful of runs.”
