Amit Misha of Delhi Daredevils has been a revelation in the shortest format of the game. He has really developed variations that has made him a lethal prospect. Well, Delhi Daredevils is a depleted unit in the absence of Jean Paul Duminy, Quinton de Kock and Shreyas Iyer, which means some of their biggest batting names would be missing. Yet, Amit Mishra has asked everyone not to ‘write them off’. Well, no one will knowing the format of the game.
“JP Duminy has some personal problems and that’s why he pulled out. When something like that happens, it’s better the player stays with the family. It’s never nice to keep on playing,” Mishra told reporters here.
“De Kock got injured and we can do very little about that. Whenever he’s fit, he’ll walk back in the team. Yes, it’s not ideal but that doesn’t mean you can write us off. The good thing is the guys have gelled well in the last few days and I feel we have a very good team this time. We are working hard. I’m confident we are going to do well,” Mishra said.
“But in my last three years, I’ve seen the team improve and do well. When people say that we are a weak team, it motivates me personally and I want to prove them wrong. This time the team we’ve made, there has been a lot of thought put into it, there were several meetings and I’m sure, you’ll see the results,” Mishra said.
“Last year we almost made it to the play-offs. We were just two wins away from that. This year we have a balanced team and we will try to do better than last year.”
