New Delhi, 26 April 2024: After pulling off a thrilling win in their previous match, the JSW and GMR co-owned franchise Delhi Capitals are in readiness to take on Mumbai Indians in their next game of the IPL 2024 at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday.
With four wins and five losses in nine matches, Delhi Capitals are currently placed sixth on the points table. Addressing the pre-match press conference on Friday, Delhi Capitals’ Director of Cricket Sourav Ganguly highlighted that this is an important phase of the tournament. He said, “If you look at the table, except Rajasthan, everybody is one game this way or that way, and it normally happens in such big tournaments like IPL and World Cup. It’s rare that some teams will just go right through.”
“Every game is important. And also what it does is, you’re already into the tournament, you’ve played eight or nine games and players are in form, they know what to do. So, that’s why this is always a very important stage of the tournament,” he added.
When asked about Delhi Capitals being involved in high-scoring matches, Ganguly said, “We’ve given and we’ve scored. Because this is a fantastic wicket, it’s not the biggest of grounds, and it’s very hard on the bowlers.”
Talking about the match against Mumbai Indians, the former India Captain said, “We are open to chasing and we might chase tomorrow. I don’t think there’s any hard and fast rule. Depends on the situation, on the ground, on the teams we are playing.”
Team News: Ganguly also mentioned that Ishant Sharma and David Warner are injured and may not be available for selection for the match against Mumbai Indians.
