He said, “I tend to be aggressive, but before I went to bat, Ricky said just focus on timing, keep the ball in the middle, don't try to hit it too hard. “That helped me take my nerves down, I went out there and played a great innings, hopefully that continues.”
Delhi Capitals will face Gujarat Titans in their next match of IPL 2024 on Wednesday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
