On the other hand, all-rounder Hardik Pandya expressed that he was happy to win the ‘Man of the Match’ award for disciplined bowling. He bagged two wickets while conceding 20 runs for Mumbai Indians. However, they beat Kolkata Knight Riders by 9 wickets and finished the league stage as the table topper.

“For sure, getting a Man of the Match for my bowling is really pleasing. To be honest as a batsman, there is nothing better than hitting a ball. People don’t expect a lot from my bowling, neither do I, but it feels nice. Krunal was telling me that I generate the power from my hip and core, but I really don’t know where I get my power from,” he further said this.
