The Delhi Capitals are looking to get into winning ways after going down in their first two games of the TATA IPL 2023. Ahead of their match against Rajasthan Royals on Saturday, Delhi Capitals’ Fast Bowling Coach James Hopes said, “We haven’t batted, bowled and fielded well for a whole game yet. We are hoping we can do that from our next game and then hopefully, we can string a few victories together.”

The Delhi Capitals have had difficulties against fast bowling in their first two games of the tournament. When asked about the same, Hopes said, “We have a few young players, who are facing bowling speeds of high 140s or low 150s for the first time. They are learning it the hard way through the competition. Hopefully, they’ll get more comfortable with the high pace and start turning their performances around.”

The Fast Bowling Coach heaped praise on wicketkeeper-batter Abishek Porel, who made his IPL debut in the last game, “Abishek Porel is a special talent. He got our innings going with the bat against Gujarat Titans and he did well with the gloves behind the wicket. He’s a very good wicketkeeper and he’ll catch up with the speed of the game with the bat as well.”

The Delhi Capitals will take on Rajasthan Royals at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati on Saturday.
