“I told the Mumbai Indias that I can go into the field as it is the short format of the game. Once, I made clear in my mind, then it was just focusing on what I needed to do.”
“The injury is fine now. I have started the process of getting it nice and want to become 100% sure before the longest format. I don’t want to leave a single stone unturned for the tour and that’s probably the reason behind me at NCA.”

“Once the injury happened, the next two days I was just featuring out, what to do in the next 10 days. Whether I could take the field or not.”
“For me, I need to make sure that I’m fit. I was not concerned about anyone or what people are thinking. I want to make it to the records that I was constantly in touch with BCCI and Mumbai Indians regarding the injury.”
