IPL 2024: Porel’s Temperament Is Creditable; Result Could Have Been Different If Dropped Catches Were Taken, Says Amre
Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket: In Saturday’s match against Punjab Kings the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Delhi Capitals were in a spot of bother at 149/8 in 19 overs and were in danger of ending up at a below-par score on a black soil pitch.
It was an innings where DC’s main batters got set, but none of them could get a big knock and needed a moment of brilliance to set a par score. Their wishes were answered when Abishek Porel was drafted in as an Impact Player in place of Ricky Bhui and the young wicketkeeper-batter smashed 32 not out off just 10 deliveries to take DC to a competitive 174/9.
“Getting him ready for those situations is our job as a support staff. We had seen him in our preparations during the practice camp and games that he was striking well. That’s where we as a coaching unit and captain were keen to have par runs on the field in this match.
