He's contributed with the ball and, as we've seen, can be destructive with the bat too. Going forward, he's great value for the investment Delhi Capitals made in him. We need more domestic players like him to step up in the IPL and help take their teams over the line,\" said Aaron.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Nigam\u2019s performance was a continuation of what is becoming a compelling storyline for Delhi Capitals this season - their underrated Indian core. Against RCB, he finished with 2 for 18 in four overs, including the crucial wicket of Virat Kohli and teamed up with Kuldeep Yadav, who bagged 2 for 17, to choke RCB\u2019s middle order. The duo bowled a combined 23 dot balls, restricting Bengaluru to just 163\/7, despite an early onslaught from Phil Salt and Kohli.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>DC\u2019s spinners - Axar Patel, Kuldeep and Nigam - have now firmly established themselves as one of the strongest spin trios in the competition. Their ability to bowl across phases, combined with Axar and Nigam's all-round capabilities, gives KL Rahul\u2019s team enviable balance.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>While Delhi\u2019s middle order continues to deliver - thanks in no small part to Rahul and the in-form Tristan Stubbs, who has now produced back-to-back match-winning knocks - their top-order issues remain.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>As noted by experts Sanjay Bangar and Piyush Chawla on ESPNcricinfo\u2019s TimeOut, the lack of consistent starts from the likes of Jake Fraser-McGurk, Faf du Plessis and Abishek Porel is one of the few concerns in an otherwise well-rounded setup.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"Good bowling attack, they still have some issues at the top of the order,\" Bangar observed. Chawla added, \"They look like a good balanced side, but there is always scope for improvement\u2026 the fast-bowling department and early wickets are areas to work on.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>As noted by experts Sanjay Bangar and Piyush Chawla on ESPNcricinfo\u2019s TimeOut, the lack of consistent starts from the likes of Jake Fraser-McGurk, Faf du Plessis and Abishek Porel is one of the few concerns in an otherwise well-rounded setup.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/tagging\/highest-tax-paying-cricketers\">Highest tax paying cricketers<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n",
