Chasing 182, LSG were under pressure in the final overs, but Mukul held his nerve and turned the game around with fearless hitting. He smashed crucial sixes in the closing stages, including two in the final over, to take his team over the line. After the match, Mukul revealed how Pant\u2019s words helped him stay calm and trust his instincts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThe main thing is calmness. Over the last one or two years, earlier I used to rush a bit, but in the past few months, I\u2019ve worked on this in practice, so that I want to bat as long as possible. If I take the game till the end, I believe I can win it for my team,\" Mukul said at the post-match press conference.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"Even in the last match, I played 4 to 5 balls, I didn\u2019t get out, but I wasn\u2019t timing it well. So I spoke to Rishabh bhai. He told me that I was overthinking, thinking, 'I will do this, I will do that.' He said don\u2019t think so much. Just focus on your job, your process, what you\u2019ve always done. If you overthink, you\u2019ll feel pressure. Watch the ball. When you hit it, you hit it well. I believe in you, but you need to believe in yourself too,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u201cI will dedicate this knock to my father. He had a dream even before he got married that his son would play cricket. I watched MS (Dhoni) sir and how he finished the game. I bat in the same position, and I also want to dedicate this finish to him,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
