Meanwhile, Prithvi Shaw has fared decently in the ongoing season with the bat while opening the innings with David Warner. The duo has got the team off to a great start on multiple occasions. The Mumbai cricketer has so far scored 259 runs in nine innings at a strike-rate of 159.87 and average of 28.77 with two half-centuries to his name. He will be itching to get back to the field with the Delhi Capitals fighting it out to make it to the playoffs.
