The depleted Delhi Daredevils are yet to register a win this season but Manpreet Juneja believes it is too early to write the team off and it will bounce back.
"It happens. It's cricket but we have faith in ourselves and we believe we will bounce back," Juneja told reporters at the post match conference after his side's 44-run drubbing at the hands of Mumbai Indians.
The Delhi franchise, three losses out of three matches so far, missed the services of swashbuckling opener Virender Sehwag once again and Juneja informed that the senior player is still recovering from back spasms.
"Viru pa (Sehwag) is still recovering. He seemed fit but he is not 100 per cent yet. He didn't want to get into the game without being 100 per cent (fit)," Juneja said.
Chasing a mammoth 210 runs for victory, the 22-year-old made 49 off 40 balls and consolidated the Delhi innings with Australian David Warner, after his team lost two quick wickets.
Juneja termed Warner's dismissal as the turning point in the match as the duo was scoring runs at a brisk pace till the fall of the Australian's wicket.
"I think when Warner got out, from there we couldn't get our momentum back. But David and I had a decent partnership," the youngster said.
Warner, who has been in good touch this season, struck five fours and four sixes in his 37-ball 61 as he forged an 82-run stand with Juneja for the third wicket.
Asked what he has learnt from observing players like Warner, the Gujarat-born player said, "He (Warner) has a different game and I have a different kind of a game. But he strikes the ball pretty hard and pretty well, he is very balanced.
"That is what you get to learn from these players to stay balanced and it is little bit of technical stuff and mental aspect that comes along when they take the target and how they break it into small parts.
