Coach Rahul Dravid needs to have a strong word with Indian team, feels Zaheer Khan
He added that the Indian team is lacking their trademark fighting spirit in the match and letting their guard down when conditions are not favourable for them.
Delhi Daredevils dominated Royal Challengers Bangalore as they restricted them for 157/8.
Led by speedster Zaheer Khan (2/31), the bowling unit of Delhi Daredevils dominated Royal Challengers Bangalore as they restricted them for 157/8 in the fifth match of the IPL 2017 on Saturday.
However, wicketkeeper-batsman Kedar Jadhav managed to score a causative 69-run knock to lay a foundation for RCB at their home ground M Chinnaswamy Stadium.
The 32-year-old batsman from Maharashtra smashed five boundaries and five sixes and concluded his knock at a notable strike rate of 186.48.

Jadhav became the second victim of Delhi skipper Zaheer, who had dismissed Vishnu Vinod (9) earlier in the same over.
Hitting a full-on delivery by Zaheer, Jadhav lofted it towards mid-off where Chris Morris made no mistake.
Besides the impressive catch, Morris claimed three big wickets with his medium-fast bowling.
Pacer Pat Cummins and spinner Shahbaz Nadeem took the scalp of Mandeep Singh (12) and RCB captain Shane Watson (24) to join the celebration.
