Sehwag and Gavaskar lashed out at DC skipper David Warner for the loss after his sluggish knock of 65 off 55.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Delhi Capitals languished to the bottom of the table with a third straight defeat in IPL 2023<\/a> on Saturday. In response to a colossal target of 200, set by Rajasthan Royals on a batting-friendly Guwahati track, Delhi only managed to crawl to 142 runs, hence succumbing to a concerning 57-run loss<\/a> <\/strong>which simultaneously affected their net run rate as well. And batting legend Virender Sehwag <\/strong>and former India cricketer Rohan Gavaskar<\/strong> lashed out at DC <\/strong><\/a>skipper David Warner<\/a> for the loss after his sluggish knock of 65 off 55.<\/p>\n\n\n\n DC skipper then combined with Lalit Yadav<\/a><\/strong> to stitch a 64-run stand but while the latter looked the more aggressive one, Warner, who was well settled by then, failed to change his gears while the asking rate putting more and more pressure on the visitors. Warner eventually completed his fifty and reached the milestone of 6000 runs, but the lower order succumbed under pressure as RR restricted DC to just 142 for nine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Furious as Warner’s knock, Sehwag, in conversation with Cricbuzz<\/em> <\/strong>after Delhi’s loss, gave an ultimatum to the Aussie, asking him to either take a leaf out of players like Yashasvi Jaiswal<\/a><\/strong>, who scored a thundering fifty in RR’s win, or not play in IPL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI feel it is time that we tell him in English now so that Warner listens to it and feels hurt. David, if you are listening, please play well. Score 50 in 25 balls. Learn from Jaiswal, he hit in 25 balls. If you cannot do that, do not come and play in the IPL,\u201d Sehwag<\/strong><\/a> said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
