Delhi Daredevils skipper Zaheer Khan insists his team can still make the play-offs despite the drubbing it received at the hands of table-toppers Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League.

Mathematically, Delhi still have a slim chance of progressing in the competition provided they win all their remaining three games. Delhi are sixth in the points table with four wins and seven losses.


"We still have a chance. We need to win. You can always talk about the points table but the first thing is that we need to win. We need to regroup as quickly as possible, we got


a three day break coming up, that will help us regroup and come back stronger," said Zaheer after his team was bowled out for 66, their lowest total this season. The heavy loss had come after back-to-back successful chases at the Feroz Shah Kotla, raising hopes of revival for the Daredevils.

"Nine days back nobody was giving us a chance (in the tournament). Today you are talking about play offs. Surely, it is going to go down to the wire.

"We need to stay positive, the mindset is critical. We will be doing the same things that we have done in the past," said the former India pacer.
