NAVI MUMBAI: Gujarat Giants head coach Michael Klinger admitted his side paid a heavy price for repeated lapses in the field but stressed that the team’s overall commitment and preparation remain strong despite defeat against Mumbai Indians.
GG suffered their first loss of the WPL 2026 season, with an uncharacteristically untidy fielding display undoing much of the good work they had shown earlier in the tournament.
MI skipper Harmanpreet was dropped on three occasions, and several misfields and overthrows compounded their problems, a stark contrast to the sharp standards they had set in their opening two matches.
