'He is leing from front': Kagiso Raba

"Shreyas has been really unbelievable as a captain. He is young. For a captain, especially when you are leing an overseas player on a big st is a huge task. So he has done really well so far. He is leing from front," Raba said in a virtual press conference.

"Shreyas is just a rmal guy who is chilled out and when we get on field he is a captain who has to make decisions and I am sure Rickey (Ponting) is helping him. Delhi has a very liberal environment and it is probably one of reasons we have been successful," he ded.
