Delhi Daredevils on Monday announced that the fast bowling pair of Zaheer Khan and Mohammed Shami are nursing minor injuries. The duo have hence been unavailable for selection thus far. Zaheer has a niggle, but is progressing well and should be available for selection once the medical team has assessed him. Right-arm fast bowler Shami has a minor knee injury and is consulting a specialist to chart a quick recovery process. Delhi Daredevils head coach Gary Kirsten was confident that the pair, when fit, will strengthen the bowling resources. "We look forward to the return of Zaheer and Shami to the playing XI. Thus far the bowling unit has stood up well and made the most of the opportunities. The most pleasing aspect of our bowling has been the performance of the spinners and the younger fast bowlers." Delhi Daredevils’ next match will be in Pune against Kings XI Punjab on 15 April.
