3 captaincy options for Delhi Capitals if Rishabh Pant leaves the team

Rishabh Pant returned to the side in IPL 2024 after his recovery from the accident in 2021.

The 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) promises to be an exciting season, with many players expected to be shuffled in the IPL 2025 Auction. Reports suggest that Rishabh Pant might leave the Delhi Capitals (DC) in the upcoming auction. If Pant does leave the team, the big question is: who will take over as captain for IPL 2025?

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav is currently with the Mumbai Indians (MI), but he might consider leaving to pursue better opportunities with other teams. As India’s captain in the recent T20I series against Sri Lanka, SKY led the team to a series victory in his very first assignment as captain in the shortest format of the game. Given his leadership qualities, he could be an excellent choice to captain the Delhi Capitals in the upcoming season.

KL Rahul

KL Rahul could be another strong option for the Delhi Capitals, as he might leave the Lucknow Super Giants in the next edition. If he becomes available in the IPL 2025 Auction, franchises will be eager to have him on their side. Delhi Capitals may target KL Rahul as a perfect replacement for Rishabh Pant, given his leadership abilities and wicketkeeping skills.

If he decides to leave the franchise, many teams will be eager to secure the services of the champion player. The Delhi Capitals could consider signing him to turn around their disappointing IPL record and aim for a trophy under the experienced leadership of Rohit Sharma.
