Nitish Rana shows a global shine on the return, leads the Lions of Delhi from the west before
The brilliant display of Nitish with Bat and Ball saw the Western Delhi Lions move towards second place in the DPL 2025 table.
Nitish Rana could not have asked for a better return. Back home after 2 years, the former Captain of Delhi Tout-Format resumed where he had stopped.
Nitish had a modest season of Indian Premier (IPL) 2025 according to its standards for its new team, the Royals of Rajasthan. Before the start of the 2025-25 interior season, Nitish wanted to return to the rhythm. And he did exactly that. The Rajasthan did not feel the need to use its range outside the practical spin.
The magic outside spin of Nitish Rana
But leading the Western Delhi Lions in the Premier League of Delhi (DPL) 2025, Nitish thought that his slow and intelligent bowling alley would be useful. And he was 100% correct. Nitish found himself as the best launcher for Lions. He was the most economical, with Hrithik Shokeen, giving only 18 points in 3 Overs.
The 31 -year -old also took a counter, which was great because the runners of East Delhi lost only 4 counters in their 20 Overs. Nitish mixed his rhythm while the ball stopped a little and tried to make a bowl so that the strikers do not look at him. Arpit Rana was the second best runners of the runners after Anuj Rawat, and Nitish obtained his counter just before halfway to slow them down a little.
Self -doubt
Nitish did not want to take someone’s place when he thought of returning to Delhi. His time with the Uttar Pradesh was not so great and perhaps he doubted himself. But with regard to talent, there is no doubt that Nitish has it.
“I did not think it would be easy for me to return to Delhi because he is not lacking in talent. And I didn’t want to cause a problem, ruin a team or take another place. Nitish said at the press conference before the tournament.
Nitish will strike with the bat
After showing its value with the ball, Nitish had fabulous feedback with its main competence, striking. Krish Yadav and Ayush Doseja had already given lions a perfect start. When Nitish entered, 81 points were needed at 60 balls. Doseja was still hitting. Nitish came and killed the match.
He struck 39 races of only 15 bullets, making the majority of heavy work. He was taken behind because he did not care to finish the undefeated match and gave the Lions a massive boost with regard to the net race rate, because they won by 7 counters and with 15 balls to lose.
