Axar looks being angry.

Honestly he should

But Axar himself too needs to worry about his performance.

Why angry ? His bowlers should have done better.

Exactly and catches win matches both the teams dropped catches but i think dc was more bad . Imagine ucant defend 260 .they deserve to loose.

Kya finals they might choke even before that. 😂

They need to lose few matches or else they will get overconfident.

Wahi wahi..i too wanted them to lose today..but seems dc wanted them to win ..

I think both teams bowled/ fielded poorly

Delhi's target seemed huge at first but Punjab turned the game around

Karun Nair's hands looked injured, they could have moved him round the pitch or taken him off

Axar Patel | Delhi Capitals Captain: Looking at the kind of wicket, if you don’t support your bowlers and keep giving away so many chances, then I feel we deserved to lose. That’s the main point. It was a good pitch and a small ground, so sixes were always going to be hit. However, when opportunities arise and you don’t take even one, you drop chances, as we did today. On a wicket like this, if you don’t back your bowlers, it becomes difficult. At the same time, we also need to look at our bowling unit. The way we bowled in the powerplay, the fast bowlers, the fielding, and the opportunities we missed were the main reasons. Because on a wicket like this, 264 was a very good score. If you look at the positives, we scored 264, which is a record score in the Indian Premier League. This shows that if luck goes your way a little and you take your catches, you can win two or three matches in a row. If you look at the matches we are losing, many were close games. That’s what I said at the toss as well, if we can grab the crucial moments, then two or three results could have gone our way and we could keep winning. But the key is that you have to seize those moments. It can’t keep happening that you come in every time and repeat the same mistakes. So I think we’ll go back, review it again, see what we can do, and where we can improve.

He already has so much dark circles ..his team is stressing him more

Priyansh Arya: We (openers) were talking among ourselves that if we try to score 80 in the first six overs, then we can easily make 100 runs if we bat smartly. That was the thing working for us. (What would you say about the pitch?) The pitch was very good. And I had belief that we could chase it. Earlier I thought the score would be around 240, and we could chase that. But when it became 265, I still felt it wasn’t impossible. If we had a good powerplay, we could chase it comfortably. I was enjoying it a lot (while Prabhsimran was batting.) I was thinking he should just keep hitting so maybe I wouldn’t have to take many chances. Ricky Ponting said that if we play our best game, we can chase it comfortably. And we are the best team till now in the Indian Premier League. So if we play our best game, we can chase it. Just keep self-belief.

Definitely

But their fielding too sucked and made them lose.
