“Today was a good day for us as a team”: Rohit Sharma

In the IPL 2025 Eliminator, Mumbai Indians’ batter Rohit Sharma produced a scintillating 81-run knock, propelling his team into Qualifier 2. Rohit’s knock proved to be crucial in lifting MI to a formidable total of 228. So far in IPL 2025, he has amassed four half-centuries, each of which has resulted in victories for MI.
"I definitely would have liked to get more. But today was a good day for us as a team. I do understand the importance of playing this Eliminator and going through this next step, taking that step forward. Again, a complete team performance, which we are really, really proud of,” Rohit said after winning the Player-of-the-Match award.
In the initial overs of the innings, Rohit was dropped twice, but he held his nerve to play a match-winning knock.
“To be honest, I've played all those shots in the game before, and unfortunately, I found fielders. Somewhere down the line, you know, you've got to be lucky, and today was that day for me. I got lucky."
"You know, those catches were dropped. But again, like I said, even after the drops, you still have to play well to get those runs. And that is what I was focusing on: how I can keep that momentum going, keep that tempo going, which was brilliant from our entire batting unit to get that score. And then, like I said, it was a good bowling effort as well."
