Former opener urges Delhi Capitals to shake up their opening combo against SRH.
Abhinav Mukund has thrown a curveball ahead of Delhi Capitals' clash with Sunrisers Hyderabad. He's questioning the logic behind keeping Pathum Nissanka alongside KL Rahul at the top of the order. With Nissanka averaging just 25.60 and both batters adopting a similar aggressive style, Mukund believes it’s time for a shake-up.
He’s all in for Prithvi Shaw, arguing that his explosive starts could change the game for DC. "Delhi don’t get off to blazing starts often, so why not unleash Shaw? He’s either gonna light it up or get out quickly, but at least it gives the team a chance to score big early," Mukund stated.
Furthermore, he’s calling for consistency with Karun Nair, urging the management to give him a fair run after his debut. Mukund reckons constant chopping and changing disrupts team stability. "You backed Nitish Rana early on—why not do the same for Nair?" he challenged. Mukund's comments add a layer of intrigue as the Capitals look to find their winning formula against SRH.
Will DC heed Mukund's advice? This match could be a pivotal moment in their season.
