"I think we will take that score at the halfway mark"- CSk batter Daryl Mitchell after first innings of IPL 2024 clash vs SRH
At the mid-innings break, CSK batter Daryl Mitchell reflected on the action that unfolded during the first innings and his batting performance, saying:
"Look I think we will take that score at the halfway mark. Yes there is dew around but we will back ourselves to win this. For us it was to put the pressure back on them and apply the match ups perfectly. Look it is a new wicket, they all play slightly differently."
Mitchell added:
"The Hyderabad bowlers bowled really well and we had to look for different plans to find the boundaries. We have something to defend now. We will try to run around and throw our body and hopefully we can get the job done. Ruturaj is a wonderful batter and it's always a pleasure watching him from the other end."
