Nehal Wadhera was among the few shining lights on the night for MI, scoring a cameo—24-ball 49. At the post-match press conference, he later admitted that things didn’t go as per plan for Hardik Pandya & Co. “In T20s, individual scores only matter a little for me and the other players.

And Wadhera wants his teammates to draw from that past experience. “Regarding the games we have [left] now, we need to win all the games to qualify. We have been in such a situation in the earlier seasons as well, and have, upped our game and qualified. So, we are optimistic even now.”
