We all know how calm MSD can be: Rohit

Rohit Sharma

A dejected Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma rued his side's top-order woes in the ongoing IPL, but could only admire veteran MS Dhoni for his match-winning knock in the IPL here on Thursday.

"It was a great fight from us. We were right in the game. After batting not so well, our bowlers kept us in the game all through. But in the end, we all know how calming Dhoni can be and he took them home," Rohit said. "If you lose three or a couple of wickets up front, it's always going to be tough. You're always playing that catching [up] game," he added.

After a disastrous start, Tilak Varma's 51 not out helped MI to reach a decent total of 155 for 7, but in the end it turned out to be not enough as CSK chased down the target of 156 in the final ball.
