MI vs DC: Players Thoughts
Faf du Plessis : Axar is really sick in the last two days. We'll miss him today. We haven't been at our best in the last 5-6 games. Everyday there's a new opportunity. Wicket looks a bit dry, we're chasing. Axar is two players and it's difficult to replace him. We'll see how it goes.
Hardik Pandya : It's been under covers for a couple of days. We would have liked to bowl as well, but it's okay. Every game is important from now onwards, we want to play our best cricket. The boys are very excited.
