IPL 4: Deccan needs to push the performance

Languishing at the bottom of the points table, Deccan Chargers need to pull up their socks and avoid sloppy fielding if the team wants to end its losing streak in IPL 4, said coach Darren Lehmann here on Monday.

"We have to push the performance to win matches and execute plans. We need to win every match hereafter," Lehmann told reporters on the eve of his team's match against Pune Warriors.

Noting that the Chargers have let matches slip through its fingers, Lehmann hoped to hold on to the catches to prevent a repeat of what happened in their previous matches.

Fielding lapses, especially the catches of Virender Sehwag dropped by Ankit Sharma and Dwarka Ravi Teja had cost them dearly in the last game against Delhi Daredevils.

"I don't think it is anything to do with luck. We had two opportunities to get Viru." he said
