Delhi Capitals: Captain’s announcement remains
Delhi Capitals are the only team in all the teams of IPL 2025, which has not yet announced its captain. Rishabh Pant was the captain of the team last season, but this time the team did not retain him. Since this decision, it was clear that Delhi would have to find a new captain.
Delhi Capitals tried to buy Rishabh Pant back during the IPL auction, but they could not succeed. Now veteran players like KL Rahul and Akshar Patel are present in the team, any of which can be given the responsibility of captaincy. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see who the Delhi team chooses its new captain.
All teams are making their strategic changes for IPL 2025. Now the eyes are on Delhi Capitals as to which player he will hand over the command of his team.
