In the previous game against Kolkata Knight Riders, he was run out cheaply, scoring just seven. With DC consisting of 12 points from 10 games and eyeing a playoff spot, the responsibility is now on the veteran batter to make his bat do the talking.
Delhi, currently placed fifth on the table, began their season with four straight wins but have had some rough recent weeks, losing three of their last four matches. Their away record, however, has been more decent, winning three out of four. Meanwhile, SRH are struggling in ninth position with just three wins in ten matches. While mathematically still in the race, they are largely playing for pride and to spoil other teamsā chances.Ā
