Delhi Capitals will start their Indian Premier League 2023 campaign against Lucknow Super Giants in Lucknow on April 1. Delhi failed to reach the playoffs stage last season and finished fifth on the points table behind Gujarat Titans, Lucknow Super Giants, Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore.
While the franchise did some smart business in IPL 2023 Auction to sign some explosive players like Phill Salt and Rilee Rossouw.
However, the biggest blow for Delhi Capitals is the unavailability of Rishabh Pant for the upcoming season. The DC skipper sustained multiple injuries last year in a car accident. He has been out of cricket since then and it will take time for him to recover from the injuries.
Delhi Capitals have yet not announced his replacement as a captain and also as a player. While David Warner is the prime contender to take over the captaincy charge as he has already led Sunrisers Hyderabad in the past and also guided them to the IPL title.
Delhi have not won any IPL trophy since the inception of the tournament, they came close to claim it in IPL 2020 but suffered a defeat to Chennai Super Kings in the summit clash.
Under Ricky Ponting’s guidance, Delhi will once again begin their quest to lift the trophy as this season they will also get the advantage of the home conditions which was missing for the past couple of years.
