Delhi Daredevils seamer Ashish Nehra said on Monday his team was looking to stitch together a good show in its last three games.

“It definitely hasn’t been a great season. But we are looking to finish well,” he said, on the eve of DD’s match against CSK here.

Nehra noted that injuries to key players such as Kevin Pietersen and Jesse Ryder had hampered DD’s prospects. “We lost the first six games and have won three of the next seven. There are a few teams like CSK that do well ever year because they have the same team,” he said.

On his own form, the Delhi bowler said. “I won’t say I am unhappy. I generally bowl during the first six overs and in the last four overs. Unfortunately in India, we look only at the statistics. I was a little rusty in the first two-three games but now I am bowling better.”The 34-year-old also hailed fellow paceman Umesh Yadav as “the most talented bowler in India”.
