IPL 11: Chris Morris Ruled Out, Junior Dala Joins Delhi Daredevils
Chris Morris was forced to pull out of the remainder of the Indian Premier League owing to a back injury.
If change in captaincy wasn’t enough, Delhi Daredevils have been dealt with another blow as their star all-rounder Chris Morris, following a back injury, was forced to pull out for the remainder of the Indian Premier League.
South Africa's right-arm fast medium Junior Dala has been called in as replacement for Morris, who played four games aggregating 46 runs and three wickets to show for his efforts.
Dala came into prominence during the recent series against India, where he played all three T20 Internationals taking seven wickets. He was one of the finds for South Africa in the T20 series which they lost 1-2. Dala will be wearing jersey No 3 for Daredevils.
