Respectfully disagree with Simarjeet. IPL pressure is on another level - crores of rupees, massive crowds, and national attention. But good that he's confident in DPL!

The real test comes when you face international players in IPL. But good to see domestic players taking local leagues seriously. That's where future stars are born.
