“Those important chances in between, we need to grab when the opportunity comes our way, it is not like we are dropping half chances, we are dropping sitters and those things hurt you.

Virat Kohli heaped praise on Delhi Capitals’ performance in the last game. He termed Shreyas Iyer and Co. as a balanced side, stating that they are a tough team to beat.
