IPL 2022: Retained players have a responsibility to guide youngsters in the team, says Delhi Capitals' coach Ricky Ponting
Indian Premier League (IPL) mega auction this year, Delhi Capitals' head coach Ricky Ponting stressed that the players who have been retained by the franchise now have a responsibility to guide the youngsters in the team. The Capitals had retained four players -- skipper Rishabh Pant, opener Prithiv Shaw, spin all-rounder Axar Patel and South Africa pacer Anrich Nortje -- ahead of the auction and the coach is trying his best to get to know the rest of the squad ahead of the 2022 season, which begins on March 26. "I have told the boys to keep their doors open when they are in their rooms and get to know each other. I am going to have breakfast, lunch and dinner with all the younger guys that I don't know," Ponting was quoted as saying in a media release.
