After the shameful defeat against RCB, team captain Axar Patel talked about this. After the match, Akshar Patel revealed the reason due to which Delhi Capitals had to face this shameful defeat.

Axar Patel held him responsible for the defeat against RCB

Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel blamed his defeat on his opening batsmen. He held the top 4 batsmen of the team responsible for the defeat. He praised RCB bowlers Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jos Hazlewood. Akshar Patel, while explaining the reason for his team’s defeat after the match, said that

“I don’t even know what happened. That’s why it is said that in cricket we have to be alert every moment. We have to forget this match and move ahead. If seen from today’s point of view, it had an impact, but if we look back, if catches had been taken or we had taken a run against GT, the trend of the match would have been in our favor.”

Axar Patel continued his statement and said that

“The game is such that there is no scope for ‘ifs and buts’ in it. You have to be positive, you had a bad day and learn from the last 5-6 matches. I am not surprised, he is a world-class bowler, swings the ball on every pitch, but if our openers or top-order batsmen had played him boldly, the result could have been different.”
