It’s just about execution: Captain Rohit disappointed after MI’s crushing loss

TIL Desk Sports / Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma expressed his disappointment after his team conceded 70 runs in the last four overs of Gujarat Titans’ innings in the IPL at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday.

A few days after their bowlers went for 96 runs in the last five overs against Punjab Kings, MI struggled yet again at the death, against the defending champions. “It’s a little disappointing. We pretty much had control of the game till the last few overs when we went for too many runs. It’s just about execution,” Rohit said at the post-match presentation ceremony.

“We need to execute what’s right, who are the batsmen, those kind of things. But in the end we didn’t do that and gave too many runs. You’ve got to look at every team has very different strengths. We have a strong batting line-up to achieve the target.
