Shreyas Iyer and Kagiso Rabada
Shreyas Iyer's Strategy Proves Effective
Delhi Capitals' skipper Shreyas Iyer, on Monday, surprised Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) as they chased 196/4 by pulling out his ace speedster Kagiso Rabada after just one over and bringing in spinners R Ashwin and Axar Patel for the third and fourth overs of the innings.
The RCB batsmen, it seemed, were not prepared for this move. The result was that openers Devdutt Padikkal and Aaron Finch returned to the pavilion. The move resulted in a wicket in each of those two overs -- with Ashwin removing Padikkal and Axar getting rid of Finch -- as RCB could never recover from there. They were restricted to 137/9 in 20 overs.
