Punjab Kings lost the 42nd match of the IPL 2021 against Mumbai Indians by 6 wickets. SKipper KL Rahul was not in touch with the bat and could manage to score only 21 off 22 balls. After the loss, Rahul said, "We have three games, so we need to take one game at a time. We need to go out there and enjoy ourselves. All our games in the UAE have gone down to the wire, hopefully, we can build on that."
"It was a great fight, but 135 was not enough on this pitch. We should have got about 170. The boys showed a lot of fight with the ball, we have done that two games in a row. The next three games will be interesting for us as the table looks interesting. It is what it is, we haven't been able to handle the pressure. We'll learn more if we play more together as a team. We need to be positive."
