Fleming backs Mohit and Nehra to fire during the death overs

The kiwi doesn’t underestimate dolphins
On the loss to KKR being a wake up call: Yeah it is. You don’t get too many chances in this competition. We’ve used one up with Kolkata so we expect that we need to win all three or win two very well. So the pressure is on and we know that well. It’s one of the challenges for an IPL side because we tend to get in late because of players’ international commitments around the world. We have to hit the ground running because of the first loss which is similar to last year’s start. We know our fate will be in our hands if we can win the next three.
On death bowling being a concern: We have a few options. The other day we were under pressure. It’s always a pressure area. Any team in the world, barring the team with (Lasith) Malinga in it, would not be comfortable bowling at the death. We’ve got three players Mohit, Ashish and Dwayne with the task of doing that job.
On the opponents: They have some good players. I think the way cricket is these days we’re a lot more familiar with teams from around the world. We have some SA influence in our side and we have been able to get some good information about them. It’s a good opportunity to get back in this tournament at the same time I wouldn’t underestimate the side.
