Coach MK Kaushik felt it&rsquo;s high time his boys registered a victory. &ldquo;Tomorrow&rsquo;s match against Punjab is crucial and we have to play to win the match. We will try and overcome the areas that we have been lacking in and improve ourselves,&rdquo; Kaushik said here yesterday.
Warriors, meanwhile, are keen to keep up their fine run in the tournament &mdash; they&rsquo;ve won three out of the five games. &ldquo;We&rsquo;ve had a bit of a break after our last game against Uttar Pradesh Wizards. It&rsquo;ll be a challenge for us to regain the same intensity as we had in the first part of the tournament. But we&rsquo;ve always done well against the Magicians and we&rsquo;ll try to keep our good run against them,&rdquo; said Punjab skipper Jamie Dwyer.
