This IPL season has been good for me: Umesh

"I also think that this is one of my best performances this season. My last IPL wasn't that good but this season has been a lot better. I'll continue my progress and try to come up with even better performance," said Umesh, who took three wickets to restrict Kings XI to a modest total of 136 for 8 last night.

Delhi managed to reach the target with an over to spare and consolidate their position at the top of the table with 20 points.

Umesh said the team will not take the coming games lightly against the Royal Challengers Bangalore here tomorrow and Kings XI on May 19 at Dharamsala.

 

"We are not going to take our coming games lightly. We are going to give our best to win the remaining matches also," he said.

Chris Gayle's devastating form has clearly been playing on the minds of the Delhi Daredevils' players as Umesh admitted that the explosive Jamaican's early dismissal will be key to his team's success against the RCB at the Feroze Shah Kotla stadium.

"Obviously before playing RCB, we will make our strategies and plans. We need to get him (Gayle) out early. Our plan would be to restrict their scoring and bowl them out as soon as possible," he said. MORE
