Delhi Capitals captain and opener David Warner is currently the 3rd leading run-scorer in the Indian Premier League 2023, the end of Sunday’s double-header.
David Warner has scored 158 runs in 3 matches at an average of 52 with two half-centuries
But he has a low strike rate of only 117. And none of Delhi Capitals Skipper runs have come in a match-winning cause as Delhi Capitals have lost all of their 3 Indian League 2023 matches so far and languish at the bottom of the points table.
David Warner has not hit a six in 3 innings:
Arguably the greatest overseas batsman in the IPL, he hasn’t been able to his a single six in his 3 innings so far.
He has faced 135 balls in 3 knocks, but hasn’t been able to hit a single six! This is quite a rate lull in terms of sixes in his career while he’s known for his power-packed hitting.
Warner now has faced most balls in the Indian Premier League 2023 without hitting a single six.
Most balls faced in #IPL2023 (after 14 games) without hitting a six:
135 – David Warner
50 – Mayank Agarwal
43 – Sarfaraz Khan
39 – Harry Brook
34 – Ishan Kishan
33 – Washington Sundar
31 – Devdutt Padikkal

DC Skipper recorded half-centuries in two big chases, against Lucknow Super Giants and Rajasthan Royals, and fell short of a fifty once, against Gujarat Titans, batting first. With wickets falling around, the left-hander played the anchor role for most of his innings and even late he couldn’t hit a six.
He’s managed scores of 56(48) vs LSG, 37(32) vs GT, and 65 (55) vs RR.
Delhi Capitals with 3 losses in 3 matches and Mumbai Indians with 2 defeats in 2 games are the only teams to have not registered a victory so far in the tournament.
This losing streak is set to change on Tuesday, April 11, when DC and MI meet at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
