IPL 2026: Thought We Managed To Get A Decent Score On The Board On A Slow Wicket, Says Rohit Sharma
Indian Premier League: Mumbai Indians (MI) veteran opener Rohit Sharma felt his side putting up 162/6 against Delhi Capitals in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 clash at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi was a decent score despite the sluggish nature of the surface. On a two-paced pitch, MI managed to get past the 160-run mark, with Rohit making 35 after skipper Suryakumar Yadav made 51.
"Looks like a pretty slow wicket. You just have to get in and bide your time and then try and play some shots because it's not easy, but I thought we managed to get a decent score on the board. Hopefully, we can try and squeeze them in the first six, try and get some wickets up front, and then see where the game goes.
“Looks like that at the moment. As you saw in the first innings, shot-making wasn't that easy. We've got bowlers who can exploit that and try and, as I said, try and squeeze them in the first six. If you can manage to do that in the first six, then we are pretty much in control of the game, and then, our spinners, the seamers, can come into the picture,” said Rohit in a mid-innings chat with the broadcasters.
