Rahul Chahar: Rohit advised me to stay focused and hit correct length

Mumbai Indians leg-spinner Rahul Chahar has said Rohit Sharma asked him to bowl with confidence and in the right length. Rahul picked up 4 wickets against Kolkata Knight Riders in the last game.

"Rohit told me that 'bowl with the confidence and sometimes even I fail to read your ball so how would they. Stay focused and hit the right lengths. I knew that spinner is gonna be a game-changer in this match. I had the confidence that I can do that," Chahar said at the post-match press conference.

"We both bowled well. Krunal did not give many runs in his spell. In the last match it was not like this but this time there was help from the wicket for spinners. We will play the main role if we get these kinds of wickets," Chahar said.

Rahul ended a 72-run opening stand between Shubhman Gill and Nitish Rana in their chase of 153 runs. MI defended 153 runs against KKR, and at a time they were completely out of the game.
