I am doing this after a long time. In this match after 14th December, I completely fielded 20 overs and batted 18 overs. So it was a little tiring. Otherwise no problem. At that time I felt that Mumbai needed me. Especially in those conditions where one has to bat till the end, I went and played.

I enjoyed my time on the field.

This is the art of Mumbai school. I have played a lot of cricket at Wankhede ground. When the ball stopped taking the seam I hit all my shots. I have done that in training,” he said. With this win, Mumbai has moved from last place to 9th in the points table.
