’12 Ball Yorker Dal … ‘, Why is Mitchell Starc of Australia veteran? After the victory, Akshar Patel told
Axar Patel Statement after Delhi Capitals Victory: The team of Delhi Capitals, which started IPL 2025 in a great way, has achieved their fifth success of the season. The 32nd match of the tournament was played at Arun Jaitley Stadium between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals last (April 16). Where the DC team managed to win in the super over. After this brilliant victory against the opposition team, Delhi captain Akshar Patel looked quite happy. After the match, he said during the award distribution ceremony, ‘The end is good. The way we started, as our powerplay passed. I believe that we should have played more fast. We had earlier talked to the batsmen about this during the strategic time out, but KL and Porel believed that this pitch was not looking easy.
Akshar said, ‘When you come to bat, you will be able to feel it. After that we said that you move forward with this intention. We were able to do this thing after the 12th or 13th over in the game. The ball was roaming a lot. This was not easy for the new batsmen, while it was easy for the batsmen already set. When the runs started scoring, then a nervous atmosphere started to form inside. During the bowling, after the strategic time out, I told myself and the players of the team that the real game has started from here. It is not easy to hit a four and a six in the middle overs. We have to do something different.
He said, ‘Nothing happens on its own. When a set batsman is out, it is not easy for new batsmen here. During that time many wickets fell. All became a pressure on everyone and they got nervous. The ball was moving a lot and was not coming easily on the bat. This year I have not been able to do as I want to bowl, but when your team wins, you have a confidence in you.
Putting on his point, Akshar said, ‘This thing was going on in my mind that I should make some contribution and set examples for the team. Today I was focused on this thing and today we succeeded in doing good in both bowling and batting in the end overs.
The DC captain said, ‘I was thinking that if Stark wants, he can bring us back to the game. He did the last over and super over of the game, in which he bowled very well in the last over and put 12 balls of 12 marks. That is why they are called Australian giants.
