“I feel everything is going fine. Everyone’s mindset is really good. I have seen that everyone’s preparation has been spot on. It’s just a matter of one game. Everyone is backing each other, everyone is there for each other and that’s why we call it one family. It’s just about one game. We just have to go out there and play the same way as we used to do in Mumbai,” Suryakumar said at the post-match virtual press conference on Friday following MI’s second successive loss.

Having played their first five games in Chennai, MI have shifted base to Delhi, where they will face Rajasthan Royals on April 29. Suryakumar is confident the champs will begin their second phase on a positive note. “One phase is over, it’s time for the next phase. I am 100 per cent sure that we will start the next phase really strongly and come back in the tournament really hard,” he remarked.
