Delhi says `Ready Bangalore` with Mustafiz`s photo

Delhi Capitals are not doing well in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). The franchise has lost all the 4 matches so far. And so naturally they are at the bottom of the points table. Meanwhile, after sitting in the dugout for three consecutive matches, Tiger pacer Mustafizur Rahman got a chance in the eleven in the last match.

He had a chance to become Delhi's 'hero' in the very first match. But could not use the opportunity. He hit 2 sixes in his last over and 19th over of the innings yesterday against Mumbai Indians. Delhi's chances of getting their first win in the tournament basically ended there.

However, it was the Tiger pacers who brought Delhi back into the match. Mustafiz dismissed Mumbai captain Rohit Sharma with a wide yorker in his third over. It is doubtful whether the match would have gone to the last over if Rohit batted for 65 runs. Mustafiz bowled brilliantly in the previous over as well. He gave only 2 runs. However, Fiz cost 13 runs in his first over. And digested two sixes in the last over.

After the loss in that tense match against Mumbai, the talk of Mustafiz's two sixes is coming back. However, David Warner's team wants to forget the defeat. And so today (Wednesday) Delhi Capitals posted a picture of Tiger pacer Mustafizur Rahman on their official Facebook post with the caption, 'Ready Bengaluru'.

Meanwhile, the cutter master heard encouragement from skipper Warner despite not being able to finish the match. "We lost today (Tuesday) but the boys were brilliant," Warner said at the post-match award ceremony. Two balls were bowled (the last over by Mustafiz), that's where we lost the match. We bounced back in a big way. Norkia is a world class bowler, as we expected. So is Mustafiz.'
