Chennai: While he may not have clicked with the bat and may not have been bowling but Mumbai Indians’ Hardik Pandya showed his all-round skills as his two run-outs through direct hits helped Mumbai Indians pick two crucial wickets to derail SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH).

Hardik first got rid of a dangerous looking David Warner and then ran out Abdul Samad who was giving Vijay Shankar company and looking to take SRH home.

“I don’t spend much time on fielding, just make sure I’m ticking the boxes. To be honest, the run out of Warner I wasn’t expecting he was that far. I threw it just to make sure the ball is getting old and then realised he was far outside,” said Hardik while talking about his efforts on the field.

Hardik said that MI know how to seize moments and win matches.

“The experience that everyone as a unit showed, that’s what matters. Whenever you get the opportunity you seize it and you win it. The kind of experience we have, lots of players go to the captain to give feedback and that helps.”
