Talking about Sunday”s match Ganguly said, “Mumbai are a good team, we are a good team as well. We won one game against Chennai. We expect Mumbai to play well because they have been a great franchise for a long period of time. They have some quality players in their squad.”
“But T20 is such a format that sometimes you get into this situation, where you lose a couple of games and then find a way to get back. It’s going to be a good game tomorrow. We will compete, we are a good team as well, we have some quality players,” he added.
