Delhi Capitals' skipper Faf du Plessis backed his team following the franchise's disappointing loss against the hosts, Mumbai Indians, in the 63rd encounter of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. Jasprit Bumrah and Mitchell Santner's three-wicket haul bundled out the visitors, Delhi Capitals, for 121 runs as the hosts registered a 59-run victory at the Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday. With this win, Mumbai Indians became the fourth and final team to qualify for the IPL 2025 playoffs. The other three teams for the knockouts are Gujarat Titans, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and Punjab Kings.
Faf Du Plessis' excellent fifty and Mitchell Starc's five-wicket haul were the lead acts in Delhi Capitals' comprehensive seven-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL match here on Sunday..

DC made the announcement on their official X handle by posting a video, in which Faf could be seen talking to someone on phone, saying phrases like "I am at home", "Delhi has been great and boys have been fantastic" to express his closeness with the team and also confirmed that he "is the vice-captain of Delhi Capitals and is very excited".
Newly-appointed Royal Challengers Bengaluru captain Rajat Patidar on Wednesday said he would want to pick talisman Virat Kohli's brains to learn the nuances of leadership and stressed on the importance of "standing with players" in all circumstances. Patidar has taken over as RCB skipper from Faf Du Plessis, who was released ahead of last year's mega auction. "I'm not that much expressive, but I'm aware of the situation of the matches. So, I think it's important to back my players and stand with them in all situations, and give the sort of environment where they feel relaxed and confident," Patidar said in a press conference here.
