The speculation around who will lead the Delhi Capitals in the new Indian Premier League season was put to bed by the franchise on Tuesday when they named Rishabh Pant their captain for the upcoming season.
In a video shared by the franchise which was captioned, “COMEBACK DONE NOW WELCOME BACK, CAPTAIN RISHABH PANT,” the captaincy decision was confirmed. Last year, the Capitals were led by David Warner and finished 9th in the league.
Pant was out of action for 14 months after suffering a horrific car accident in December 2022.
