In the opening game, Delhi were struggling at 26 for 4 in a modest chase. Rizvi stepped in and anchored the innings with an unbeaten 70, showing maturity well beyond his years. In the very next match, he walked in early again and produced an even more commanding knock of 90, guiding the team through another tricky chase.
What makes Rizvi’s performances stand out is his adaptability. He can absorb pressure when wickets fall, but also accelerate when required. His partnerships with Tristan Stubbs have been particularly valuable, allowing Delhi to rebuild without panic.
As the tournament progresses, opposition teams will begin to plan specifically for him. But if Rizvi continues this form, Delhi Capitals will have found not just a dependable middle-order batter, but a genuine match-winner capable of shaping their season.
