Assessing targets is a quality of good teams. Mumbai Indians, I dare say, figured out pretty early that the pitch for their Saturday clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad will not be one for 175 runs. 

Rohit Sharma mistiming Vijay Shankar after scoring 32 may have been the moment when MI reworked their sums. Quinton de Kock and Rohit, when they get in, have a strike rate of over 150 but the sluggish nature of the MA Chidambaram Stadium surface didn’t allow them the comfort of a healthy strike rate they are comfortable of achieving.
