MI skipper Rohit Sharma feels most teams, including his own, are taking risks in the ongoing IPL and it is paying them rich dividends. Chasing a stiff 200-run target set by RCB, MI on Tuesday romped home in 16.3 overs.
Rohit said at the post-match presentation –
“We restricted them to less than 200. Was a great effort, It could have been 220 or more. I have no idea what a safe score is. The last four games we have seen excess of 200 has been scored. Most of the teams are taking risks and it is coming off.”
Rohit added – “The batters are taking risks and 200 plus scores are being chased. The mindset of the batters is to do something special for the team and it is coming off as well.” Rohit also praised the star performers his team including Uttarakhand pacer Akash Madhwal.

Rohit Sharma said –
“It is a good pitch. If you apply yourselves, you can get runs. Those four guys played well. Akash (Madhwal) was with us last year as well. We saw the skill set. We wanted to give him a role. He is quite confident, he leads his Uttarakhand team. He knows what field he needs.”
