Axar In The Race Of Captaincy
After KL Rahul neglecting the captaincy offer, Axar Patel becomes the prominent choice for the DC captaincy. Axar is associated with DC for a long time and now it’s time for DC to offer him his right.
Rahul Declined Captaincy Offer
Rahul was widely considered a strong contender for the Delhi Capitals captaincy. However, recent reports suggest that he has declined the offer to take on this role. Rahul has decided to focus solely on his batting for the upcoming IPL season, which led to his decision.
Despite consistently performing well in the IPL, Rahul has been opening the innings for a while now. However, his strike rate has dipped in recent seasons. As a result, many have suggested that stepping away from the pressures of captaincy could help him regain his form with the bat.
Delhi Capitals Squad
KL Rahul, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Karun Nair, Faf du Plessis, Donovan Ferreira, Abhishek Porel, Tristan Stubbs, Sameer Rizvi, Ashutosh Sharma, Darshan Nalkande, Vipraj Nigam, Ajay Mandal, Manwant Kumar, Tripurana Vijay, Madhav Tiwari, Axar Patel, Mitchell Starc, T Natarajan, Mohit Sharma, Mukesh Kumar, Dushmantha Chameera and Kuldeep Yadav.
