“Now, you will see that in 70% sports, the ball is going in. Therefore, this is happening because the saliva is heavy, and the sweat is not so heavy. Therefore, if the ball is heavy, it will give the tail.
Delhi Capital is set to host Rajasthan Royals on Wednesday. DC currently ranks second on the points table with 8 points from 5 matches – 4 win and 1 defeat. Meanwhile, Rajasthan Royals are eighth with 4 points out of 6 matches – 2 wins and 4 defeats.
“So, we will say that the wet ball is also reversing. Sometimes, we will see that despite having dew, it will still be reversed. Sometimes, it happens that you maintain the ball position or become heavy on the other side. Therefore, it reverses, but it turns, but Saliva It is 110% on it, ”Mohit said.

Mohit also praised New second ball rules In the IPL, saying that it has worked in favor of the bowlers.
However, this rule played a role in ending the unbeaten run of Delhi Capital, as they fell for a 12 -run defeat against Mumbai Indians. The DCs were well on track during the chase, but the introduction of the new ball in the 13th triggers a middle-order collapse, which turned the game to Mumbai’s favor.
“It helps 100%, and we saw that in the previous game too. Initially, the 12-over ball was a bit wet, as dew came in the previous game. When his innings was over, the dew started coming in the dew and it was good in the second innings. When Karna changed the ball after the 13th over, the ball started spinning. So the ball makes a slight difference.
“Over time, when it reaches the 15th or 16th over, the ball’s position becomes the same. But yes, I can say that as a bowler, it has an impact. If I bowl in the 14th or 15th over, where the ball has changed, I will always prefer to hit the Yorker, because the ball is dry, and it will not slip.
