Hussey was of the view that many of the Kings XI players were yet to get over their four-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bangalore in their last game in Bangalore.
"I don't think we really switched on. I think we were still celebrating the win against Bangalore. I think we (players) got a bit carried away," Hussey said last night in the post-match press conference.
After back-to-back wins over defending champions Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore in away games, Kings XI lost to Rajasthan Royals by 43 runs in a lopsided affair last night.
Rajasthan posted a challenging 177 for six and then restricted the home team to 134 for eight, with Shaun Marsh top-scoring with 34.
The loss meant, Kings XI slipped from the number four spot to sixth position in the points table with five wins out of 11 games.
Asked about their dismal home record this season, Hussey said, "I guess we are an away team. We played particularly well away. We are hoping to prepare well for Deccan Chargers (whom Kings XI play next in Hyderabad)." MORE
