IPL 2021: It's important that we turn up and do the job, says MI skipper Rohit Sharma ahead of KKR tie

"I know that we had a very handy record against them, but it`s important that we turn up really well on that particular day, and do the job. When you are chasing a score like 157 you need to build those small partnerships, and make sure you keep yourself in the game as long as possible." Commenting on the impressive show by pacer Adam Milne in his first game, the captain said: "Adam Milne, especially is coming from a very good tournament in UK. He is a good bowler, bowls really fast and it`s all about, you know, getting that confidence and he got that confidence in the first game. So I just hope that he builds on it. We just have to come back and come back really strong and tick those small boxes, and I think if you look at the potential in this squad. We have got all bases covered."
Rohit missed the opening game as the team management felt it was important to give him some more recovery time after he injured himself during the Test series in England. MI couldn`t capitalise on the good start they got against CSK and ultimately lost the game by 20 runs as MS Dhoni`s boys made a remarkable comeback after a poor start.
