"It's not a worry for us because we all know how many runs he has scored and how much experience he has with him. He is hitting the ball well and it was an unfortunate dismissal today. It's not easy when you were chasing 149-run target in 14.2 overs with run-rate of 11 an over," said Sharma at the post-match press conference here today.
Sharma said Mumbai need to carry the winning momentum against CSK in the semi-finals and need to be at their best to put it across two-time IPL champions.
"They are a good team. I won't call them dangerous side but a good team and we need to be at our best against them. If you look at head-to-head encounters, we have beaten them on more occasions. It's an important game for us and we need to carry the winning momentum into the semis."
