Rahane's Presence Allows Me To Play Freely: Dhawan

By IANS News November 04, 2020 • 20:03 PM View: 1076

The presence of Ajinkya Rahane in the Delhi Capitals (DC) middle order brings stability to the team's batting line-up, says opener, Shikhar Dhawan. Both players scored half-centuries in DC's win over Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in their final match of the group stage that assured them a top-two finish.

"Yes, of course, his presence allows me to play freely. He brings a lot of stability in the middle order, and day before yesterday, he played an amazing knock -- it's always an advantage when he is there in the side, and I can play more freely when he is at the other end," Dhawan said in a virtual press conference ahead of their qualifier against Mumbai Indians.
