IPL 2022: Our bowlers made the job easier, says Delhi's David Warner after nine-wicket win over Punjab

Indian Premier League (IPL) season on Wednesday, Delhi Capitals' (DC) David Warner said that the bowlers made life easier for the batters after bowling Punjab Kings (PBKS) out for 115. Warner smashed an unbeaten 60 to lead the Covid-affected Delhi Capitals to a thumping nine-wicket victory over PBKS here at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. This was Warner's third successive half-century and his 53rd in the tournament. He hit 10 fours and one six in his 30-ball knock. The left-handed batter also went past 1,000 runs against Punjab Kings and is only the second player in IPL history to do so against a single team.

Delhi Capitals may have been the wounded team when they reached the venue but when they left the stadium, they had brutally scarred Punjab Kings. They dismissed Punjab for a paltry 115 and then chased down the target in 10.3 overs with nine wickets to spare.

Warner said that he was grateful to be able to get out of their hotel rooms and play the match. "I think the bowlers did a fantastic job and made it easier for us...It was a different surface compared to the last night, but credit to our bowlers. Was grateful that we were able to get out of our rooms and play tonight," said David Warner in a post-match presentation. Warner was in an 83-run opening stand in just 6.3 overs with the opener Prithvi Shaw. After another spectacular performance with the bat, the opener said his daughters wonder why he cannot get hundreds like Jos Buttler who is the Orange Cap holder this season and has already smashed two centuries for his team Rajasthan Royals.
