Ambati Rayudu consoles Hardik Pandya after Mumbai Indians lost to Rajasthan Royals.Watch | Cricket News

Mumbai Indians have had a forgettable performance in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) as the five-time champions have lost three matches. MI’s new captain Hardik Pandya, who is currently at the bottom of the table, has also faced severe criticism from fans since taking over from Rohit Sharma as captain. MI’s latest loss was against Rajasthan Royals, who were restricted to 125/9 before chasing the target in just 15.3 overs.

After the loss to RR, Hardik was seen sitting on the coaching bench interacting with Ambati Rayudu and it was a very emotional moment. Hardik put his hand on Rayudu’s shoulder as the former MI batsman was consoling him.

“A tough night, we didn’t start the way we wanted. I wanted to fight back and we were in a good position to get us around 150-160 but my wicket brought them back into the game more Medium, I need to do more. It’s okay, we didn’t expect a surface like this but you can’t always take it as a batsman and sometimes it’s good for the bowlers to have a say. It’s all about doing the right things “Sometimes the (correct) result happens and sometimes it doesn’t. As a team, we believe we can do better but we need to be more disciplined and show more courage,” Hardik said after MI’s defeat.

Earlier, echoing the sentiments of thousands of Rohit Sharma fans, former Indian cricketer-turned-commentator Navjot Singh Sidhu asked A killer did something wrong and was relieved of his duties as Mumbai captain.

“No one can digest the fact that India’s hero, India’s captain, is not the captain of our team. ‘What has he done wrong?'” That’s what the fans of the team will think,” Najot Sidhu said in ” Star Sports” said in the program.

“But what does he have to do? There is nothing like success. If he wins these two games, there won’t be any noise,” he further added.
