New Delhi, May 7:
Delhi Daredevils skipper Virender Sehwag reckons his top order's cracking form in the IPL so far will give his side an edge over Chennai Super Kings when the two teams lock horns here tomorrow.
Sehwag's top three has been in fine nick with himself and his opening partner Gautam Gambhir, second and third respectively, in top rungetter's list and Rajat Bhatia doing a fine job.
"In Twenty20, whenever the top order fires the team has the chance to win. This is for all teams and fortunately my team has been doing well in that department," Sehwag told reporters at the match eve press conference here on wednesday.
"Our top order had done well in four out of six matches so far and I am looking ahead at least one of the top three fires in the remaining matches," he said.
Daredevils had beaten MS Dhoni's boys comprehensively at their own backyard less than a week ago but Sehwag said his side could lower their guards at their own peril.
"Super Kings have struggled with their combination (after departure of Matthew Hayden and Michael Hussey), they were scoring more than 200 initially but could not maintain that form," the Delhi captain said.
"They are struggling now but no team is weak. I have said it earlier, any player can turn a match singlehandedly; it is a short game," the Delhi icon player said.
Sehwag was not worried of his middle order coming into pressure in a few occasions especially in the last match against Mumbai Indians which the Delhi team lost.
