"We win and lose as a team"- MI captain Hardik Pandya after loss vs LSG in IPL 2025 match in Lucknow

At the post-match presentation, Mumbai skipper Hardik Pandya reflected on the loss, saying:

"Disappointing to lose, maybe in the field those 10-12 runs we gave were too much on this wicket. We just fell short in the end. I've always enjoyed my bowling, haven't had many options, tried to read the wicket well and take the smarter options. My mindset is to bowl more dot balls and create pressure and the batters make mistakes."

Pandya continued:

"Really enjoy my bowling, and today was one of those days. As a batting unit, we fell short, don't want to point out anyone. We win and lose as a team. If we want to take responsibility, we'd take it as a whole unit and I'll take ownership. That was obvious, we needed some hits, in cricket sometimes one of those days come when you try but it doesn't come off."

The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will return to action on Saturday (April 5) as they will face the Delhi Capitals (DC) in the 16th match of IPL 2025 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
