Loss against Delhi proved costly, says wayamba skipper
New Delhi, Oct 13 (IANS) Wayamba Elevens skipper Jehan Mubarak said his side's big loss to Delhi Daredevils in the opening match proved to be their bane in the Champions League Twenty20.
The Sri Lankan side Tuesday won their second Group D match against Victoria Bushrangers by 15 runs but lost out a spot in the second stage due to a poor run-rate. Delhi Daredevils and Victoria Bushrangers qualify for the next stage.
Mubarak said his team took more time to adjust to the low and slow conditions here.
'It's a mixed emotions. Just when we began to click as a team, we find ourselves out of the tournament. Adapting to the conditions is crucial and we were slow in doing that,' Mubarak said in the post-match press conference.
'The loss against Delhi proved costly for us.'
