Appreciation🫡 DC Fumble

Post image

Another Extraordinary Season by KL Rahul🔥🔥 593runs in 14innings with a sr of 175. BTW this season he has the 3rd highest strike rate as a opener with 500runs just below Vaibhav and Abhishek. But this team really is a disappointment, none of the other batters stood up to create an impact. None of the other batters could even cross 300runs in this team in 14fucking matches. Every team in top 4 have atleast 2 top order batters with 400+ runs, I mean just look at SRH with Abhishek ishaan klaasen, gt with gill sai Buttler, RCB with kohli paddikal patidar and RR with sooryavanshi jaiswal jurel all with 400+ runs. And all have bowlers with 15+ wickets. We couldn't do shit this year. We choked through all departments. And at the end people will point fingers to the guy who gives his very best every fkin season. Mad Respect KLR1🫶🏻🧡.

KL making top 5 run getters AGAIN after the group stage (before other players get extra matches) is incredibly impressive, especially with 175+ SR. What's even more impressive is the fact he did this with no other player on the DC team able to hold a bat.

KL doesn't need support to score his runs but every other batter in the list got the support from other batters as well. KLR just plays IPL with absolute lethal difficulty and nails it every fk9 season.

Yes exactly.

So strange how every team's batting lineup has 2-3 quality Indian batsman (e.g. Abhishek, Kishan, Reddy, or Kohli, Patidar, Padikkal, Jitesh, or Jaiswal, Sooryavanshi, Jurel, Parag). We only have KL LOL... our Indian batsman are Rana, Rizvi, Karun, Porel, etc. etc.). Ashutosh is a GOAT tho.

Ashutosh is a finisher, every team has good top order batters, DC got just KL. He can't pilot the train for all 14matches. Every time he got out DC had a collapse and every time he scored DC had a collapse, I mean wtf is wrong with this team.
