IPL 2022 – GT beat DC Highlights: Shubman Gill’s 84-run knock and Lockie Ferguson’s four-wicket haul guide Gujarat Titans to a 14-run win against Delhi Capitals here at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium on Saturday. “Was one of those nights and with the kind of bowling partners I have, makes things very easy for me. It’s great (to have a potent bowling unit) and helps to spread calmness in the group. The pressure was coming from both ends with the ball and it worked for us. I think it (bowling extra fast) is more of an instinct thing,” said Ferguson in a post-match presentation.

IPL 2022: Lockie Ferguson lauds GT captain Hardik Pandya after match-winning spell again DC, says ‘he is giving us CONFIDENCE’
“There was a lot of bounce in the surface and I was looking to bang away on that hard length. Some gripped and it worked for me with Rishabh’s wicket. Was a good all-around performance from the bowlers. Hardik is always giving us confidence to play the game that we want to play and it’s nice to have a captain who trusts your skills,” he added.
Chasing 172-run target Delhi Capitals did not get an ideal start as skipper Hardik Pandya dismissed Tim Seifert in the very first ball of his bowling spell. In the fourth over Lockie Ferguson was introduced into the attack and the Kiwi pacer struck twice dismissing Prithvi Shaw for 10 and Mandeep Singh for 18 to leave Delhi tottering at 34/3.
