#3 Zaheer Khan turning out to be quite the captain for Delhi
A fast bowler captaining a team is something you don’t see very often in India but Zaheer Khan is looking to change that trend. Last year, he captained Delhi to a much better performance compared to their performance in 2015. And this year, he has done a brilliant job as the skipper so far.
Zaheer has used his vast experience to hone his captaincy skills which are very evident in his field placements. His ability to read the game well is what enables him to make better field placements as per the player or the situation of the match. The veteran pacer has also been very sensible in choosing the correct bowling options – this has made the Delhi Daredevils a pretty decent bowling unit and the only team in the tournament so far who has not conceded 160 runs against any opposition.
His own performances have been pretty decent so far, picking up five wickets at an economy rate of 8.11. Zaheer Khan is turning out to be a very efficient captain for DD and by the look of things, there is a good chance he might lead the Daredevils to the playoffs.
