Mumbai Indians coach Ponting wants to ignore defending champions tag

Rediff.com6 Apr 2016

Mumbai Indians head coach Ricky Ponting believes his team must start with a fresh mindset and ignore the tag of 'reigning champions' ahead of the first game of the Indian Premier League 2016. Mumbai play the IPL 9 opener against state-rivals Rising Pune Giants at the Wankhede Stadium on April 9. "It doesn't really matter what happened last year now, it's about us putting together a competitive team and making sure were ready to go for the first game," Ponting told cricket.com.au from the Mumbai Indians training camp. "We thought they were ready to go for the first game last year but it took a little while for us to click into gear." Last year Mumbai only managed one win from the first six games before dramatically turning around their fortunes to clinch the title. But this time around Ponting is keen for the team to get off to a better start, and well aware that aim will be made all the more difficult given other teams will be analysing his squad more closely as defending champions.
