Local talent Vipraj Nigam, a native of Barabanki in Uttar Pradesh, is gearing up to utilize his familiarity with the Ekana Cricket Stadium as Delhi Capitals takes on Lucknow Super Giants. Having previously played in the Uttar Pradesh T20 League at the same venue, Nigam, along with teammate Sameer Rizvi, is confident in repeating their successful strategies from the league.
Despite feeling the pressure of performing in front of his family and childhood coach, Nigam remains determined to make an impact in the upcoming match. The 20-year-old acknowledges the advantage of having KL Rahul on their side, who previously captained the Super Giants and possesses valuable insights about the team and the ground.
In Delhi Capitals’ season opener against Lucknow Super Giants, Nigam played a crucial role in their narrow one-wicket victory, contributing with both bat and ball. Although his batting opportunities have been limited since then, Nigam sees himself as an all-rounder and is eager to make significant contributions in the upcoming match.
With the guidance of experienced players like KL Rahul and the familiarity with the Ekana Cricket Stadium, Nigam is determined to make the most of his home ground advantage and help Delhi Capitals secure another victory.
