IPL 2023: Who is responsible for the bad condition of Delhi Capitals? Because of whom the team lost 5 matches in a row

One of the main reasons for the defeat of the Delhi Capitals team is the disappointing performance of the top order batsmen. In even one of the five matches played so far, the batsmen have not given a solid start to the team. Prithvi Shaw in particular has disappointed the most. Prithvi has been able to score only 34 runs in the last 5 matches. Apart from this, the batsmen of the team have flopped badly at number two and number three. In such a situation, when the batsman has the responsibility of scoring fast runs in the middle order, then the players of Delhi Capitals are handling the innings.

This is the reason why the team has not won a single match in the 16th season. Although captain David Warner has definitely tried to score runs for the team, but it has not been enough for Delhi Capitals.

David Warner slow batting

Opener batsman David Warner is captaining Delhi Capitals in the 16th season of IPL. So there is double pressure on them. Despite this, Warner has scored a total of three half-centuries so far this season, but questions are still being raised about his strike rate. Many former cricketers have blamed Warner’s slow batting behind the defeat of Delhi Capitals.

However, it will also be noted here that Warner is not getting support from any other batsman in the top order. That’s why he is probably batting slow because of managing the innings. Warner has so far scored 228 runs in five matches for the team this season, which includes three half-century innings.

The bowlers have disappointed

One of the main reasons behind the defeat of Delhi Capitals has also been the poor bowling of the team. Indian bowlers have proved completely ineffective. On the other hand, South Africa’s pace battery Enrique Nortje has been able to take only two wickets in four matches, which is a matter of concern for Delhi.

Mustafizur Rahman has recently joined the team. In such a situation, the entire weight rests on the spin department which includes Kuldeep Yadav, Aksar Patel and Lalit Yadav. Although these bowlers are also getting beaten up on Indian pitches.

In such a situation, the management of Delhi Capitals needs to think once again for the remaining matches of IPL so that it can return to the winning track.
