Delhi Capitals highest run-scorer this season, opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan believes that the team is moving in the right direction as it is not overly dependent upon any particular individual.
“We have won five out of seven so we are in a great position and the good thing is that the entire team is performing,” he said in a video uploaded by the Delhi Capitals on their official Twitter account.
“Be it batting or bowling, the team isn’t dependent on a single individual. There is always someone or the other taking responsibility on match day and that has made the team really strong,” added the 35-year-old.
Talking about the team’s next assignment against Punjab in the Northern Derby at the Narendra Modi Stadium tonight, Dhawan, who has so far scored 311 runs in seven innings so far, believes that the Delhi team can overpower the Punjabis.
“No opposition is a weak opposition in the IPL. So we have to make sure that every time we go on the field, we give our best and implement our plans,” said Dhawan before adding that Punjab are a good side and playing well. “We must respect that, but we are going to win another game I think,” said the southpaw.
