Only last week Kevin Pietersen and Mahela Jayawardene were representing their countries in a see-saw Test series between England and Sri Lanka. This week they are wearing the Delhi Daredevils jerseys and backing the team in its first home game of IPL-V against Chennai Super Kings. “I thought I had enough of him last week, but we will have a few more weeks to spend together,” said Jayawardene displaying his typical sense of humour, on Monday.
Pietersen also had a laugh over how the two had turned from “total enemies” to teammates. The Daredevils camp was more than happy to welcome the two prolific batsmen with different styles but a similar appetite for runs. “Mahela and Pietersen will give a boost to our side. Any captain will love to have them,” said Daredevils captain Virender Sehwag. It must be relaxing for Daredevils that its batting has got the required firepower as well as solidness due to these two.
Daredevils had a bright start to the competition as it crushed Kolkata Knight Riders by eight wickets. However, it could not sustain its momentum in its next away match and fell short of Royal Challenger Bangalore's total by 20 runs. Going into its first home game of this edition on Tuesday, Daredevils will look forward to addressing a few areas of concern. The bowling performance of Irfan Pathan is one such area. The left-arm seamer, who opens the Daredevils bowling, is yet to take a wicket.
