IPL 2021: We have the capability to perform even better in the second half: Delhi Capitals’ Steve Smith

The
Delhi
Capitals
are
currently
at
the
top
of
the
table
with
12
points,
registering
6
wins
in
8
matches.

“We
have
to
pick
up
from
where
we
left
off.
We
were
playing
some
really
good
cricket,
getting
the
results
we
were
after.
And
I
think
we
can
do
even
better
so
we
should
be
playing
our
best
cricket
in
the
back
end
of
the
tournament.
You
have
to
play
well
enough
to
get
to
the
final,
but
hopefully,
we
can
play
our
best
cricket
in
the
final,”
said
Smith.

The
Australian
added
that
the
team
will
certainly
have
to
build
itself
again
for
the
remainder
of
the
IPL.
“It’s
been
a
few
months
since
we
have
played
together
so
we
have
to
build
again.
We
have
a
great
squad
and
we
have
Shreyas
Iyer
back
in
the
side
as
well,
which
adds
a
lot
more
to
us.
He’s
a
quality
player
and
good
to
see
him
back
out
in
the
park.”

While
speaking
about
the
unfortunate
situation
around
the
world
due
to
the
Covid-19
pandemic,
Smith
said
that
he’s
fortunate
to
be
playing
in
the
IPL
during
a
tumultuous
time,
“It’s
been
a
very
unique
time
in
the
world
in
the
last
18
months.
We’ve
all
had
to
work
together
to
try
and
get
through
this
and
we
have
to
continue
to
get
through
the
situation.
I
am
really
fortunate
to
have
a
chance
to
come
back
for
the
second
half
of
the
tournament.
I
am
looking
forward
to
it.
Delhi
are
sitting
at
a
great
spot
on
the
table
so
hope
that
we
can
keep
playing
some
great
cricket
and
be
there
at
the
business
end
of
the
tournament.”

The
Delhi
Capitals
are
set
to
take
on
the
Sunrisers
Hyderabad
on
September
22,
when
the
VIVO
IPL
2021
season
resumes.
