You know, everyone is eager to get going, to begin at the start of the IPL but it's just one performance. We know there's a lot of games ahead and some good teams to play against. 

"So, we won't be getting ahead of ourselves but I think everyone in the group is confident and looking forward to the next few games," he said.

Woakes was supposed to play for DC last season but the Englishman pulled out ahead of the IPL 2020. DC had signed South African speedster Anrich Nortje as his replacement. Delhi Capitals had earlier bought Woakes for INR 1.5 Crores.
