Their batting has exceeded expectations with Hardik and South Africa's David Miller leading the way with stellar performances in the early half of the season. "The team has been selected well, led well and coached well. You can see they picked the kind of players they wanted and got the kind of balance they wanted," sports journalist Sharda Ugra told AFP.
They also paid $1.32-million in the auction for New Zealand's Lockie Ferguson, who leads the pace pack alongside Indian veteran Mohammed Shami."They have got Rashid Khan. They have got express pace in Lockie Ferguson and they have got Mohammed Shami, so that is three straight 'team of the IPL' kind of players."
"Paper or laptop, it's how Nehra is working his mind to convince the players and get the best out of them," former India spinner Pragyan Ojha told specialist website Cricbuzz.
