Ashwin on Delhi Capitals Chance in IPL
This year, Delhi Capitals will be without their fabulous captain Shreyas Iyer. Iyer, as a captain was extremely effective for Delhi and last two seasons were proof to the same. Ashwin was asked about the Capitals’ chances to do well in the IPL 14. He answered, “Good (On DC’s chances), well-balanced one. Last year, our batting did not come well together. It was understandable due to lockdown and all that.” This year Ashwin has faith in Pant, the new young skipper of Delhi Capitals. He said, “But this year, in the kind of form in which Rishabh Pant is, definitely that (team’s batting) also will get sorted out.”
Ashwin continued, “We have a good chance. But if you see the last few years, it is not always about the top two or three sides. Every team picks players judiciously and have good balance and options. The IPL is in a new caravan model, so conditions also will play a part.”
