“Our aim is to gel well as a unit. With a couple of games scheduled in the first week, we are aiming to settle down to excel in the forthcoming IPL competition,” said Sharma.
One of the heavyweights of the competition, Mumbai Indians have won the IPL on three occasions. With the addition of Yuvraj Singh and the return of Lasith Malinga to the side, the club is once again aiming for the highest honours.
“We have set small goals to come good in the long tourney. As a team, we will go ahead on the week-to-week performance which will help us in doing well in this edition,” Sharma added.
Chennai Super Kings will host Royal Challengers Bangalore at the M. A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai in the opening game this season.
