Delhi Capitals Gear Up for IPL 2025 Under Axar Patel’s Leadership
The Delhi Capitals (DC) are ready to launch their IPL 2025 journey on March 24, taking on the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. This season marks a fresh chapter for DC as they step into the tournament under new captain Axar Patel. With a rejuvenated squad blending experience and emerging talent, the franchise is determined to finally clinch their maiden IPL title.
Over the years, DC has shown glimpses of brilliance but has often fallen short of the ultimate prize. However, this season, the team looks more formidable than ever. Their squad boasts a mix of explosive batsmen like KL Rahul and Jake Fraser-McGurk, reliable finishers such as Tristan Stubbs, and a world-class bowling attack featuring Mitchell Starc and Kuldeep Yadav. Strategic acquisitions during the off-season have added depth and versatility, making DC a well-rounded unit capable of excelling in all conditions.
Under Axar Patel’s leadership, DC aims to harness its potential and make a strong push for the championship. With a balanced squad and a hunger for success, the franchise is poised for a breakthrough season in IPL 2025.
