This year’s Indian Premier League (IPL) will include some pivotal games for Delhi Capitals (DC), according to team captain Rovman Powell.
Ahead of Delhi Capitals’ upcoming IPL 2022 encounter against Kolkata Knight Riders, power-hitting Rovman Powell took a moment to reflect on the no-ball controversy that happened during Delhi Capitals’ last game against Rajasthan Royals on Friday. It’s not worth it for the squad to dwell on the mistakes of the previous over, according to Chris Powell, who smacked three sixes in his final over. “Everything’s time to put it behind us quickly. Our schedule is jam-packed, and we can’t afford to waste time reflecting on the past. We have to keep an eye on the horizon because there are some significant contests on the horizon. To advance to the next round of the competition, we need to win these games. We don’t have time to reflect on the events of the past “That’s what a West Indian told me.
“When I tell you the truth, I felt confident (at hitting six sixes in an over). Having gotten the first two, I was beginning to wonder what was going to happen next when I got the third. But the umpire’s decision is final, and we cricketers accept it and move on, so I was praying for a no-ball, but it wasn’t “he continued, adding.
His performance in the last game, according to Powell, has bolstered his confidence.
“It was a pleasant experience. The last few games have been frustrating since I couldn’t find that, and it’s nice to finally see a few come out in the middle. It’s up to me to carry the momentum from that win into the next games and win the tournament outright.”
An important series is on the horizon for Delhi Capital, the 28-year-old batsman stated.
“Seventh place is a terrific position for us to be in at this stage of the competition. Now it’s up to us to keep moving up the ladder and, perhaps, make it into the top four. In 2022, we have a chance to win the IPL if we reach the top four.”
The Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders will square off at Wankhede Stadium on Thursday in the next IPL 2022 encounter.
