IPL 2019: Young teammates performed above expectations, says Delhi Capitals skipper Shreyas Iyer

“All are youngsters in the team, we have been performing well, way above our expectations to be honest because getting maturity at such a young age, you hardly get to see in any player out there,” said Shreyas Iyer.

“All are youngsters in the team, we have been performing well, way above our expectations to be honest because getting maturity at such a young age, you hardly get to see in any player out there,” Iyer said in a video posted by the official handle of Delhi Capitals.

Iyer acknowledged the fact that their game against Chennai Super Kings will be intensive as the rivals had players with experience.

However, he feels that they are ‘fearless’ and ‘relentless’, which is going to make the game a very competitive one.

“It is going to be an intensive game, they have very experienced players and they have been in such situations before as well so they know how to go about it. But at the same time, we are fearless and relentless players. So, it is going to be a good competitive game,” Iyer said.

Delhi Capitals take on Chennai Super Kings on Friday and whosoever wins the game, they will face Mumbai Indians in the IPL final which is scheduled to be played on May 12.
