IPL 2022: We could've batted better in the middle overs, says Delhi Capitals' skipper Rishabh Pant after defeat against RCB
Delhi Capitals' (DC) captain Rishabh Pant blamed his middle- and lower-order batters for failing to capitalise on the platform provided by David Warner with a blazing half-century as they lost to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by 16 runs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) here on Saturday. Warner struck a brilliant 66 and had taken Delhi to 94/1 in the 12th over when he got out. Mitchell Marsh scratched around for 24 deliveries to score 14 and Lalit Yadav and Rovman Powell failed to contribute much as Delhi lost their way in their chase of 189/5 posted by RCB after being asked to bat first. Pant himself blasted a 17-ball 34 but in the end Delhi's chase lost steam and they ended at 173/7 in 20 overs.
