IPL 2021 SRH vs. DC: It could be the playing XI of both teams
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Akash said, ‘Truthfully, there are some big mistakes in the strategy. The wickets fell after 102 overs when I noticed the result of the previous match, I send Andre Russell for the batting. It may not work and it may be over, but if this plan is implemented. I think KKR is missing a trick with Andre Russell, he should get more balls to play. Shubman Gill was playing very slow and Nitish Rana was trying to do something similar. Shubman eventually runs out and Power does not appear on the Power Play. Obviously bowling was fine, but it was okay not to try to run fast.
