Shreyas Iyer's Delhi Capitals have got off to a flier despite their relative lack of experience and loss of senior player Amit Mishra.

Ashwin injured his shoulder after falling awkwardly while trying to field off his own bowling in the Delhi Capitals opening IPL match.

If the pitches in the Emirates favour spin Mishra could very well move to the head of the IPL's all-time wicket-takers list.
