Hardik Pandya rues poor execution after MI’s defeat to SRH

Hardik Pandya Blames Costly Death Overs After MI Crash Out Of IPL 2026

Hardik Pandya admitted Mumbai Indians were outplayed after Sunrisers Hyderabad chased down 244 in a stunning six-wicket win at Wankhede Stadium in the Indian Premier League. Pandya said poor execution with the ball and dropped catches proved costly despite MI posting a massive 243.

Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma gave SRH a blistering start, while Heinrich Klaasen finished the chase in style with an unbeaten 65. Pandya, while backing his bowlers, stressed that MI must improve as a unit and regain the consistency expected from the five-time champions in the crucial phase of the tournament.
