According to the coach, the team's defence is committing mistakes during the do-or-die raids and are not waiting till the last second on the clock before making their moves.

"I am not at all happy with our performance in defence, especially during the do-or-die raids. They have to wait till the last second. The lack of understanding is a cause for some concern," said Bhaskaran ahead of the team's home leg at the NSCI's indoor arena.

With two more games left in the Kolkata leg, U Mumba are lying fifth on the table with 27 points from nine games.

U Mumba are to play against Puneri Paltan today, Telugu Titans (July 21), Bengal Warriors (July 22) and Bengaluru Bulls (July 23) to conclude their home leg before clashing with Dabang Delhi in the latter's backyard on July 27.
