If Not Shreyas Iyer, Who Will Captain the Delhi Capitals? Here’s an Option

Shreyas Iyer partially dislocated his shoulder during fielding in the first ODI against England. He is expected to remain outside cricket field for next six to eight weeks. Iyer who took Delhi Capitals to the IPL 2020 final as a captain, might miss the league this time following this sudden injury. In absence of Iyer, the Capitals need to find a replacement who can do the job well.

Rishabh Pant

This name could be a surprise to many. But Rishabh Pant has been a part of the side since 2016 which means he knows the core better than most of the DC members. The Capitals have trusted the youngster for years and hence promoting him to the next role should be an easier process. He already captained Delhi domestic side in the past. Moreover, Pant has played 68 matches to score 2079 runs at an average of 35.23 and a strike rate of 151.97. Undoubtedly, he has enough experience of being able to lead the side he has been part of so long.
