Mumbai's Dhir enjoying role of death-over batting as SRH IPL clash looms

April 17, 2025

There is a thin line separating fearlessness and recklessness. Death-over batters like Naman Dhir of Mumbai Indians have to waltz around this imaginary line every time they go out in the final overs to bat, always mindful that their fearlessness does not turn into recklessness and harm their team's chances.

Mumbai's Dhir enjoying role of death-over batting as SRH IPL clash looms

Asked whether he is worried about failure when coming in to bat in the death overs and getting straight away playing his shots, Dhir said if he starts thinking about failure, he would not be able to execute his shots.

"The team management has told me that I will bat in the death overs. They said, 'We will back you, so you just go there and express yourself.' But at the same time, there is a very thin line separating fearlessness and recklessness. I have to maintain that, and I try to maintain that whenever I go out to bat," said Naman Dhir in the pre-match press conference.

While minding about his role, Naman Dhir also has to take into consideration the situation his team Mumbai Indians find themselves in ahead of their key clash with Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday.

With four bottom-dwelling teams in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 points table clubbed together at four points, Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad face off in Match 33, with a win absolutely crucial for both teams.
