Making it to their maiden IPL final is the “best ever feeling” for Delhi Capitals captain Shreyas Iyer who now wants his team to play freely against Mumbai Indians in the title clash.

Delhi Capitals beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by 17 runs to reach the final, set to to be played on Tuesday in Dubai.

“(It’s) Best feeling ever. Journey has been a roller-coaster. The emotions keep going high and low, so you can’t have a same set of routines. Have to keep chopping and changing,” Iyer said at the post-match presentation.

Shreyas Iyer:

“Hoping that in the next game as well, against MI the biggest team, we’re able to play freely.”

Iyer said it was the team’s collective effort that carried them.

“End of the day we stuck together as a family. Very happy with the effort every individual has put in. But have been getting support from coaches and support staff. On top of that the team has been so special. Really fortunate to have such an amazing team,” Iyer said.

Shikhar Dhawan’s fiery half-century and Marcus Stoinis’ all-round show carried Delhi Capitals into their maiden IPL final as they survived some anxious moments before prevailing by 17 runs in the second Qualifier on Sunday.

Breathtaking counter-attacking knocks by Kane Williamson (67) and Abdul Samad (33) threatened to dash Delhi Capitals hopes but Stoinis’ timely dismissal of the Kiwi batsman tilted it in his side’s favour.
