IPL 2023: MI vs SRH | If we don't go through, we only have ourselves to blame for it, says Rohit Sharma

Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma wouldn’t be blaming anyone if Mumbai Indians don’t make it to IPL play-offs despite their facile victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad in their final league game in Mumbai on May 21.

Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma wouldn't be blaming anyone if Mumbai Indians don't make it to IPL play-offs despite their facile victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad in their final league game in Mumbai on May 21.

Rohit scored a half-century and shared a century plus stand for the second wicket with Cameron Green, who scored his maiden IPL hundred as MI cantered home by eight wickets.

Despite 16 points with eight wins, RCB's evening match against Gujarat Titans will decide MI's fate, as an abandoned game or Faf du Plessis's team's defeat is the only way forward for Rohit's men.

"We came with that mindset, we wanted to win and not worry about what happens elsewhere. What you can control, you can control and then hope for the best. I haven't spoken to anyone," Rohit said at the post-match presentation ceremony.

"If we don't go through, we've got ourselves to blame for it. If we go through, I'll give all the credit to the boys. That's how it works. Last year, we did a big favour to RCB, I hope we get the result what we are looking for," the MI skipper said.

He, however, did admit their team didn't play good cricket in some crucial moments, including the match against Lucknow Super Giants, when Mohsin Khan defended 11 runs in the final over.

"We did a lot of things right as we went along. We didn't start well and then won three on the trot. The crucial moments in the game that we lost - there were a lot of moments like that." He then cited a couple of examples.
