Why Axar Patel Is Not Playing For DC vs PBKS In IPL 2025 For 2nd Consecutive Match - Explained
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.
