IPL 2021: Manish Pandey reflects back at SRH’s journey- Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) stand-in skipper Manish Pandey admitted that his team failed to live up to the expectations in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021.
An all-round bowling effort from Mumbai Indians ensured the team ended their IPL 2021 campaign with a 42-run win over SRH on Friday. Mumbai Indians had scored 235 in 20 overs against SRH on the back of blistering performances from Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav.
IPL 2021: “I thought we could have bowled a little better, our fast bowlers gave away a few extra runs and that cost us in the end. We won only three games, we had a lot of changes in the side, and they didn’t work for us,” said Manish Pandey during the post-match presentation.

“We were struggling a little bit, even in the early games in Chennai. We tried to do better in the second half, but unfortunately, we could not. We only had a few individual performances, but no complete team performance,” he added.
