IPL 2018, DD vs CSK: 5 players to look forward to

Rishabh Pant

Another player who has displayed his full potential this IPL has been DD’s wicket keeper and their best batsman, Rishabh Pant. This youngster has demolished the best of bowlers with efficient ease.

It is indeed frustrating to see that despite his heroics almost every game, DD find themselves with 3 wins out of 12 games. It’s his shot selection and ability to convert starts into big scores which has impressed one and all watching.

He has grown in stature in this IPL. He has amassed 582 runs in 12 games at a mind-boggling strike rate of 179.82. If only he had received the support of few of his other teammates, DD could have also been in the hunt for the playoffs.

With their last two games to be played at the Kotla, with nothing to lose, DD will look to play party spoilers for CSK by denying them a top two finish. And Rishabh Pant would just want to go out and express himself in the way he knows best, and entertain the crowds to finish of a truly magnificent IPL season for him.
