DELHI: First, it was Rahul Tewatia, who was struggling with his fitness and ruled out from some games. Now another player from Delhi Capitals has been ruled out from the Indian Premier League 2019.

Harshal Patel, the Right handed fast bowler has been ruled out for the remainder of the season. He was featured in the 2 matches for Delhi capitals. It will be a massive blow for the team as they spent 3 crores to get this player in the auction. He has injured his right arm during the practice session.

Delhi looked ordinary in this season so far, they need to tighten their seat belt to make their chances for the playoff. With only 3 wins from 6 games with NRR of +0.13 it will be tough for them to qualify ahead if they don’t play quality cricket from now.

Capitals have the talent of young Indian superstars with the support of Experienced Cricketers like Dhawan, Rabada, and Morris. From now onwards they need to win each and every match to make their chances easy for the playoff. There is no replacement named yet.

They will now meet Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on Friday.
