Mumbai: Mumbai Indians hitter Tim David remarked on Monday that he believed their season began after they won their maiden game after eight straight losses in IPL 2022.
MI are at the bottom of ten teams, but David’s lusty hitting at the back-end has helped them win all three games thus far.
“Kind of felt like the season didn’t really start for us till we got that first win. Since then, we have played some really good cricket,” David said on the eve of the team’s penultimate league game against Sunrisers Hyderabad played at the Wankhede stadium on Tuesday.
“We have won three of our last four games and there has been a good feeling in the team,” David added.

It was all about going into the games with a clean mind, according to David. “And then once, it is all mental. I think it is the same for all batters. You have got to go in with a clear mind. If you don’t, if you are carrying things into the game, you can get a patchy performance.
“So it is about trying to get into that state where you can try and be as consistent as possible mentally.
“And then if you trust your process, and stick to it, then that will most often bring the best results,” he signed off.
