RCB's Tim David, Romario Shepherd play cricket in gullies of Delhi: Video
DC vs RCB: Tim David and Romario Shepherd were seen playing gully cricket in Delhi before the Royal Challengers Bengaluru's match against Delhi Capitals. The light-hearted outing came ahead of a rematch that could shape RCB's title defence.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru found a relaxed way to prepare for their clash against Delhi Capitals, with Tim David and Romario Shepherd spotted enjoying a game of gully cricket in the build-up to the contest at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
The two RCB stars were seen having a casual hit in the streets under the Delhi sun, trading big shots and soaking in a slice of the city’s cricket culture ahead of the IPL fixture. Videos of the pair quickly made the rounds on social media, with both players appearing to enjoy the lighter side of preparations before a key away game.
According to social media posts, David and Shepherd were allegedly playing in and around the Vasant Kunj area, although India Today could not independently verify the exact location.
What was clear, though, was how much both players enjoyed the outing. David, in particular, looked right at home, sending one delivery flying with one of his trademark clean strikes, while Shepherd also joined in with his own powerful hits. It was a brief but fun glimpse of two international stars embracing the informal side of cricket in India.
Key duo for RCB
The gully cricket cameo was more than just a light-hearted moment. Both David and Shepherd have become important figures in RCB’s setup, especially in the middle order, where their power and finishing ability have often made the difference.
The duo played a major role in RCB’s fortunes last season as well, helping the side secure their maiden IPL title with crucial contributions in pressure situations. Their ability to change games quickly with the bat has made them valuable assets in the lower middle order, and that explosiveness was on display even in the streets of Delhi.
RCB now turn their attention to a key clash against Axar Patel’s Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. The two teams had met earlier at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, where Delhi handed the defending champions their only home defeat of the season.
With the rematch now set in Delhi, RCB will be looking to respond. David and Shepherd, after their gully cricket warm-up, could once again have a major role to play as Bengaluru look to settle the score and keep their title defence on track.
