Delhi Daredevils will rule IPL2

Well, I have been to Goa recently for attending a workshop organized by DRDO - FICCI  on "Commercialization of DRDO technologies". It was a fun trip and will write about may be in next post. But IPL comes first.

I am sure that by now people will start agreeing with me that Delhi's team is one of the strongest team in IPL right now. Well agreed that Deccan Chargers has been giving excellent performance till now and they have won 4 out of 4 matches they played. But a long season of Twenty20 is a real killer for the players and I am sure that all the star performers will start under-performing by the fag end of the series.
So you may ask whats so good in that. Well the point is that in Delhi Daredevil the star players namely Gautum Gambhir and Virender Sehwag are still to fire. Once they come in form they will blast away all the competition. I just hope that their performance will peak somewhere towards the end of the series. Well, I am not counting out other players and many match winners are in the team but lets accept the fact that Viru is sufficient enough to win the match.

Today's match with Rajasthan Royal will be a really tough match for Delhi's team. Reasons:
1. Rajasthan team has performed really poor and they will fight with all their vigor and energy to prove themselves.
2. Delhi's team will be under serious pressure to match the record of 4 wins of Deccan Charger.
3. Shane Warne can come out of an Ace out of his sleeve any time.

With all these challenges, I will not be disappointed if Delhi's team loose. Only they should not loose a match from the jaws of victory.

I hope that all things go well for Delhi Daredevil and they return India with IPL trophy. Best of luck to Viru's team.
