Has India found a natural ‘thinking’ captain in @ashwinravi99 or do we still live in the false belief that bowlers don’t make good captains? #DDvKXIP

Yuvraj’s best IPL season in terms of runs is 2014 for RCB when he scored 376 runs for them. That is two runs more than what Raina managed in his worst season (374 in 2015). #DDvKXIP

If Delhi Daredevils loses today also, I think there’s a good chance that we’ll get a sincere apology from Arvind Kejriwal.— Ramesh Srivats (@rameshsrivats) April 23, 2018
