Sports Desk: Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman said that there is no end to improvement as he is eyeing to fulfill his duties in the ongoing Indian Premier League for Delhi Capitals.
In three matches for the Capitals, he has bagged three wickets at an economy rate of 5.83. He sets the tone early in the innings in the powerplay and then comes back to bowl two of the final four overs for the Capitals.
“There is no end to improving, whenever I get on field I try to give my best,” Mustafiz said in an interview uploaded in Delhi Capitals official Twitter account.
Mustafiz began his IPL season with a bang, when he claimed 3-23 against Gujarat Titans. Even though his team lost that match, the Delhi Capitals head coach Ricky Ponting made sure Mustafiz’s efforts didn’t go unrewarded. In the post-match team discussion, he named him the player of the match for Delhi.
“Not just for me, it’s very encouraging for any player. Whether we win or lose, if you perform well, you get praised in front of everyone in the dressing room. I think it’s a very good initiative from our coach,’’ Mustafizur said while praising Ponting.
Delhi is Mustafiz’s fourth franchise in the IPL. He began his IPL career in 2016 with the Sunrisers Hyderabad. After two seasons at the Hyderabad franchise, he played one year at Mumbai Indians and then played for the Rajsthan Royals last year.
Mustafiz explained what his reaction was when he got picked up by Delhi and how the experience has been for him so far, “I didn’t see the auction. I was playing in the BPL at the time. Our team was batting, I was in the dugout. Someone saw it and told me, Fizz, you are in Delhi Capitals. I was excited. I have played in three different teams before, this year I will play in a new team. It felt great.”
