The former right-handed fast bowler responded, “Mitchell Starc has been a very important player for us,” when asked about the absence of pacer Mitchell Starc. In addition to being able to swing, he bowls quickly. There is bounce and swing in Mumbai, where we are performing. Therefore, it does matter, but in his absence, we will need to consider other choices.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 Match No. 63 will take place at the legendary Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Wednesday, and the Delhi Capitals will try to get back to winning ways when they play the Mumbai Indians.
As the game is a do-or-die situation for the team, Delhi Capitals bowling coach Munaf Patel reflected on the season thus far and their forthcoming encounter against MI, saying that they are naturally under some pressure.
Naturally, there is some pressure because we have to win the game. We will be eliminated from the tournament if we lose this match (against MI). Indeed, we made a few mistakes and missed some opportunities to profit. However, the team has a great environment and we remain optimistic. “All we are thinking about is the next game,” he stated.
Despite joining the team late, wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul has been praised by Munaf for the type of batting he has been doing for the team. According to Munaf, Rahul, the team’s top run scorer thus far this season, has proven himself capable of stepping up when the team needed him.
He is hitting exceptionally well. He has scored runs despite batting at a variety of positions. He has stepped up when the team needed him. He has been performing admirably for us overall,” he stated.
With 13 points from 12 games, the Delhi Capitals are now ranked fifth in the standings. They will remain in the running for qualification if they win this game; if they lose, they will be eliminated from the IPL 2025 Playoffs. Axar Patel and company’s future involvement in the competition would be eliminated if the Hardik Pandya-led team were to win, making their match against the Punjab Kings a meaningless waste of time.
