Following his side's 14-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in their Indian Premier League (IPL) match, Mumbai Indians all-rounder Cameron Green said that the first two games were a learning curve for him and his death bowling is a work in progress.

Cameron Green's fifty followed by Jason Behrendorff, Riley Meredith and Piyush Chawla's fiery spells helped Mumbai Indians (MI) clinch a 14-run win as they bundled out Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) for 178 in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 match at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium here on Tuesday. "I think the first couple of games were a bit of a learning curve for myself and for the team.

Just winning the game is the greatest satisfaction--A bit of a sticky situation, when I walked out to bat. But I am glad the plans came off.

Bowling at the death is a work in progress. The more you get exposed to it, the better you get at it. Obviously, we can continue with the winning momentum," said Green in a post-match presentation.
