"They are good players. They are world-class players. Twenty20 is one of those formats where anything can happen on any given day as we saw (in the Delhi Daredevils vs Mumbai Indians match).

"Mumbai was bowled out for not many the other day. We should take our chances early and bowl well. We will (have to) bowl a lot better than we have in the last couple of games," Lehmann said at the pre-match media interaction.

Though things have not gone his team's way so far in the tournament with three defeats in as many games, Lehman is trying to keep the boys motivated.

"We should have been two wins and one loss really, and that's the way we look at it. We just didn't close those two games. Even though we haven't registered a win, I am happy the way we are playing... So that's a good thing.

"We have probably (one of the) younger squads in the IPL, which is good as well. I have been pretty impressed with the way they have worked and all you can ask for is good work ethic and we are doing that, and hopefully, the results turn around for us soon."

On Kevin Pietersen's transfer to to Delhi, Lehmann said they would have loved to have the presence of the England batsman, who was registered with the Chargers in the last edition.

"Losing KP was a decision that franchises make between each other. We would love to have him. We haven't got him, so you can't worry about it, can you? You can't do anything about that." MORE PTI AH KHS
