Delhi Capitals batter Ashutosh Sharma said he considers every unbeaten innings in a winning cause as his best. He credited team trust, strong opening partnerships and effective bowling for the victory against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur.
Ashutosh said legends like Kevin Pietersen and Shikhar Dhawan tell him a lot of things—how calm one should be in those situations, how to keep your head clear
Dhawan and Ashutosh played together at Punjab Kings (PBKS) last season, before the former announced his retirement from the game. Dhawan, who retired from all formats of cricket earlier this year, had been Ashutosh's mentor during their time together at Punjab Kings.
Reflecting on Ashutosh’s match-winning knock for Delhi Capitals against Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL league match here, Gavaskar said they all saw him do that last year as well—Ashutosh played some terrific innings, and his confidence has only grown since
“My hard work pays off, so I am enjoying it. I was confident because it's part of the game. I was really confident about my ability. Just followed the basics and believed in my ability,” Ashutosh informed the media in the post-match media briefing.
Ashutosh Sharma walked in as DC's Impact Player with the score 65 for 5 in the seventh over. After the 13th over of the chase, DC were 116 for 6, needing 94 runs off 42 balls with four wickets in hand.
Chasing 210, Delhi Capitals slipped to 7/3 in the second over and limped to 116 for six after 13 overs, but Ashutosh's stunning knock of 66 off 31 balls delivers his side a sensational win
