IPL 2025 | IPL 2025 is here! Can Delhi Capitals finally break their title drought under new captain Axar Patel? With a well-balanced squad featuring young talents and seasoned players, DC is eyeing a historic season!
DHARAMSHALA, India: Punjab Kings slumped to their fourth consecutive defeat as Delhi Capitals ran down a 211-run target in the Indian Premier League on Monday. Captain Axar Patel, who didn’t bowl in Punjab’s innings of 210-5, top-scored for Delhi with 56. David Miller piled on with a 28-ball 51 and the tailenders finished it off to reach 216-7 and win by three wickets with an over to spare. Former IPL leader Punjab stayed fourth in the standings in the lucrative Twenty20 cricket league.
NEW DELHI, May 8 : Kolkata Knight Riders opener Finn Allen smashed an unbeaten 100 off just 47 balls in their eight-wicket demolition of Delhi Capitals in a timely boost to their playoff hopes in the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Friday.
NEW DELHI, April 28 : Royal Challengers Bengaluru's new-ball pair Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar offered a reminder on Monday that high-class bowling, with a hint of assistance from the surface, can restore the bat-ball balance in this year's Indian Premier League (IPL).
BENGALURU, April 18 : KL Rahul and Tristan Stubbs led Delhi Capitals to a six-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League on a sweltering Saturday, as the visitors outplayed the hosts in a cracking contest at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.
NEW DELHI, Jan 21 : Opener Abhishek Sharma smashed an incendiary 84 to fashion India's 48-run victory against New Zealand in the first Twenty20 international in Nagpur on Wednesday.
Delhi Capitals stand-in captain Faf du Plessis won the toss and opted to bowl in their Indian Premier League match against Punjab Kings here on Saturday. Karun Nair, who was on Saturday named in the Indian team for the Test series in England, returned to the DC playing XI. Regular captain Axar Patel is not playing yet again. While Faf du Plessis did not divulge the details on the reason behind Axar missing again, he had missed DC's previous match against Mumbai Indians as he was 'really sick'. That match took place on May 21. He had a bout of flu. It is very likely he hasn't recovered.
The IPL title has eluded Delhi Capitals for 18 seasons now, and it won't be a surprise if the script is repeated in its 19th season. Delhi Capitals have more often than not lost their IPL seasons at the auction table itself save for a couple of seasons when Ricky Ponting and Sourav Ganguly had put forth a quality side. Rishabh Pant's unfortunate accident did create a void in the 2023 season and since then, things have once again gone off the boil. The swapping of management from JSW to GMR (as per agreement) also meant that new coaching staff headlined by Hemang Badani and Venugopal Rao came in with fresh philosophy and also got rid of Pant before the auctions.
Delhi Capitals (DC) co-owner Parth Jindal expressed his disappointment after the franchise crashed out of the IPL 2025 playoffs race, following the loss to Mumbai Indians (MI) on Wednesday. Taking to X, Jindal admitted that DC failed to capitalise on a strong start to the season, adding that the team will now have to come back stronger next season. For the unversed, DC won their first four games of the season and looked destined to top the table. However, a midseason slump saw them miss out on a top four finish.
