IPL 2026: DC Have Enough Backups For Every Slot Except For Axar & Kuldeep, Opines Chopra
New Delhi: Former India opener Aakash Chopra has backed Delhi Capitals (DC) to end their long wait for an IPL title, adding the franchise's 2026 squad look as 'a very strong unit' and that he would keep his fingers crossed for them to win the trophy this year. DC are one of only two franchises to have never won the IPL title despite featuring in every season since the leagues inception in 2008. Anybody who has won multiple trophies, even Gujarat Titans, who reached the finals twice and won a trophy in their first two years, you will find that consistency and stability allowed them to succeed. IPL is designed in a way that gives you the chance to reboot. After every three years, there is a big auction coming up. Kudos to Delhi, because since 2019, they have consistently been there or thereabouts, and made the final in 2020. The womens team has reached the final in all four WPL seasons. They have got their auctions right and this year, I feel they have a very strong unit. So, fingers crossed that this could be their year, said Chopra on JioStar. He also pointed out the importance of stability in leadership and team selection, pointing to DCs improved auction strategy last year as a key factor. Anybody who has won multiple trophies, even Gujarat Titans, who reached the finals twice and won a trophy in their first two years, you will find that consistency and stability allowed them to succeed. Where there is no success, teams keep chopping and changing in a bid to find it, thinking that once they succeed, they will become stable. Then it becomes a chicken-and-egg situation. That has been the issue with both PBKS and DC. One team has had 15 captains, the other has had 17. So, if you want to change your present, stability is non-negotiable. We have often seen that the better teams arrive at their best combination in the first or second match itself, while teams that keep chopping and changing, using around 22 out of 25 players, finish closer to the bottom than the top, he said. Assessing DC and PBKS, Chopra added, On paper, I think Delhi is a more complete unit, with enough backups for almost every slot except the two spinners, but you wont find backups for Axar Patel and Kuldeep even in the entire country. Former India left-arm pacer Irfan Pathan spoke about the challenge DC faced with identifying talent during the early 2010s. I was with Punjab and Delhi for three years each. When I was at Delhi, Eric Simmons, who is now with CSK as the bowling coach, was the coach, and there was an effort to bring stability. But when you let go of players like AB de Villiers, and you had Andre Russell, starting from scratch is not easy. I played alongside Russell in the same dressing room and there were a lot of discussions about giving him more opportunities. But they just couldnt find a place for him consistently in the XI. So, identification of talent is very important, and I feel Delhi used to fall short in that area. Pathan also spoke about how the leadership of captain Shreyas Iyer and head coach Ricky Ponting has been the key difference for PBKS from IPL 2025. Leadership has played a huge role in Punjabs turnaround. You win half the IPL at the auction table. Big purses dont necessarily mean you will always get what you want, but they did, and they reached the final. But when you let go of players like AB de Villiers, and you had Andre Russell, starting from scratch is not easy. I played alongside Russell in the same dressing room and there were a lot of discussions about giving him more opportunities. But they just couldnt find a place for him consistently in the XI. So, identification of talent is very important, and I feel Delhi used to fall short in that area. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Look at the backup players - in the past, Punjab struggled with that when the focus was entirely on building the first XI, but now you see all-rounders like Azmatullah Omarzai, Marco Jansen and Marcus Stoinis, along with a young Indian batting core. Apart from that, they went all-out for Shreyas Iyer after deciding he would be the captain. So, there is clarity of thought, and I feel Punjab have started to move in the right direction, he concluded. Article Source: IANS

IPL 2026: 'Some Stories Don't End, They Come Back,' Says Shaw On Delhi Capitals Homecoming
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Indian opener Prithvi Shaw penned down an emotional message for the fans as he returns to the Arun Jaitley Stadium to join the Delhi Capitals (DC) camp ahead of the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), which will commence on March 28. Prithvi Shaw's long association with Delhi came to an end after seven seasons when the franchise released him ahead of the IPL 2025 auction. The 26-year-old then endured a disappointing outing at the auction, going unsold as Delhi opted not to bring back the now Maharashtra batter. Shaw had to wait for another opportunity as his name did not come up in the main rounds of the IPL 2026 Auction. His fortunes finally changed during the accelerated phase, where he was one of the 11 players picked in the final round, securing a Rs 75 lakh contract with his former franchise. Delhi Capitals shared a video of Shaw's homecoming on Sunday with a caption, 'Our Boy is back home.' You don't forget a place like Kotla. Not the noise. Not the silence. Not what it made you, Shaw said in a video released by DC. Some stories don't end. They come back. Delhi, your boy is home, he added. Shaw was bought by the Delhi team for Rs. 1.2 crore during the auction after India's U-19 World Cup win in 2018, where he led from the front as captain. Shaw spent seven seasons with DC, where he played a total of 79 matches and scored 1892 runs, with an average of 23.5. He scored 14 fifties during his tenure. You don't forget a place like Kotla. Not the noise. Not the silence. Not what it made you, Shaw said in a video released by DC. Some stories don't end. They come back. Delhi, your boy is home, he added.

IPL 2026: 'Pant Is Probably The Player Who Is Under Most Pressure This Season,' Says Du Plessis
Former South Africa: Former South Africa captain Faf du Plessis believes that the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper Rishabh Pant will be the player under most pressure in the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, which will commence on March 28. Pant became the most expensive player in the tournament's history last year when LSG secured the wicketkeeper-batter for Rs 27 crore. However, his performance with the bat failed to justify his price tag. Although he scored a century, his overall performance remained underwhelming, as the ton came when LSG were already out of the race for the playoffs. Du Plessis highlighted the burden of the price tag and the poor performance last year, which will mount pressure on the LSG skipper. For me, Rishabh Pant is probably the player in the IPL who is under the most pressure this season. Some guys flourish under the price tag pressure, while some dont. I think last season was a really tough one for him. The team struggled, and he also struggled with runs in the way that he batted, Du Plessis told Jio Hotstar. So, there is all that pressure coming into the season, along with the expectations of what the team is going to do. With a batting-heavy team, how are they going to maximise their bowling? Because there is pressure on your captain, scoring runs is your first job. Du Plessis highlighted the burden of the price tag and the poor performance last year, which will mount pressure on the LSG skipper.
