Delhi Capitals head coach Ricky Ponting believes playing more empty balls in the middle overs cost his team dearly in their IPL match against Chennai Super Kings here. Chasing Super Kings’ 167 for eight, Delhi suffered a 27-run defeat against the four-time champions.
Coach Ricky Ponting said this
Ricky Ponting said after the match that we lost three quick wickets and then the spinners came to bowl. We didn’t do well against the spinners. He said that we have played around 34 dot balls in the middle overs. You can never win chasing a score if there are so many empty balls in the middle overs.
Wickets lost in the first over itself
The former Australia captain also regrets the fact that many times in the current season his team has lost wickets in the very first over. Ponting said that I think this was the fifth, sixth or maybe seventh time this season when we lost the wicket in the first over of the match. Once we lost two wickets in the first over of the match.
Such a performance in IPL 2023
In IPL 2023, the Delhi Capitals team has won only four out of 11 matches so far. At the same time, the team has faced defeat in 7 matches. He has only 8 points and is at the last position in the points table. Even if Delhi would have won their remaining three matches, it would be very difficult for them to reach the points table.
