Ahead of his side’s home clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Sunday, Mumbai Indians (MI) batting coach Kieron Pollard expressed happiness with veteran Rohit Sharma’s form, saying that the team always had belief that the ‘Hitman’ will come good.
The fourth-placed MI will be aiming to make it five successive wins in five matches as they lock horns with LSG, the sixth-placed side at Wankhede Stadium on Sunday. Both teams have won five and lost four games so far. MI’s and Rohit’s fortunes have undergone a massive transformation of late.
While MI lost four of their first five games, they went on to win the next four on the bounce. Also, Rohit, who looked shabby out in the middle with just 82 runs in the first six innings and missed a game, has roared back to form with two hard-hitting half-centuries against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
