IPL 2022: 'Who's Going To Give Me Runs?': Rovman Powell Shares Story About His Talk With His Bats

West Indies star Rovman Powell has delivered glimmering exhibitions with the bat for the Delhi Capitals in the last couple of games. In his last four games, Powell has enrolled scores of 36, 33*, 35, and 67* while generally batting at the lower-middle order. In DC’s last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Powell was advanced at no.5 and he scored his first 50 in IPL, producing an unbeaten 122-run stand with David Warner.

Notwithstanding, Powell had gotten through an unfortunate beginning to his maiden Indian Premier League season. He had scored just 31 runs in the initial six games set up before at long last returning to run-scoring in the season.

Rovman Powell Disappointed At His Bat

During a candid conversation on The Grade Podcast, Powell amusingly described how he communicated his disappointment at the bat after the series of disappointments in the initial three matches of the season.

“In the first three games of the IPL, I didn’t get many runs. (Moreover), I didn’t get runs with the bat that I score so many runs. I was in my room, I put them (the bat) back on the bed and I said, ‘you’re going to disappoint me in the IPL. What are you doing?’” Powell said, inducing laughter from David Warner and Prithvi Shaw, who was also a part of the conversation.

Powell further uncovered that after another low score, he kept the bat to the side and picked an alternate bat.

“I said ok, I’m playing in the next game and I’m giving you one more chance. I get one ball against RCB (in fifth game of the season – dismissed on 0), and when I went back to the room, I just put them (the bat) on the bed and I said, ‘I’m gonna give you a little break’. And I looked on the next 4-5 bats that I have and I said, ‘who’s going to put up their hands and give me some runs?’” said Powell.

“I just take one and flip the script!”

Delhi Capitals will return to action later tonight when the side takes on the Chennai Super Kings.
