Cricket / Rishabh pant car accident these 3 players can replace him in delhi capitals as captain

Delhi Capitals Captain: Team India's star wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant has suffered a serious injury. His car had a terrible accident while going from Delhi to Roorkee. His car collided with the railing near Hammadpur Jhal on the Narsan border. The accident was so horrific that his car caught fire in a short time. Pant is currently admitted in the hospital. Due to this, it seems impossible for him to play in IPL-2023.

Delhi Capitals are now looking for a captain

The Delhi Capitals team, which is looking for its first title in the IPL, will now enter the next season (IPL-2023) with a new captain. Pant was handling the captaincy of the team, but due to the accident, it is difficult for him to play in the season. In such a situation, the Delhi team is looking for a captain. The team has also added some players in the recent mini auction as well.

Command can be handed over to David Warner

Australian veteran David Warner can be given the command of Delhi Capitals team in IPL-2023. David Warner also has this experience. He has even made Sunrisers Hyderabad the champion in IPL under his captaincy. In such a situation, he is being considered as a strong contender. Although he can never lead the Australian team, in such a situation it is possible that CA may put some hurdles. Warner was banned for life in 2018 due to his role in ball tampering.

Prithvi Shaw also contender

If there are questions about the captaincy on Warner, he or the franchise itself does not want to hand over this role to him, then Mumbai's young batsman Prithvi Shaw can also be given the responsibility. Prithvi Shaw has captaincy experience in Under-19 cricket. He represents Mumbai in domestic cricket and is currently playing in the Ranji Trophy. He has been running out of Team India for some time.

Phil Salt will do wicketkeeping

Delhi Capitals bought Phil Salt in the IPL mini auction. He was included in the team by the Delhi franchise for Rs 2 crore. The 26-year-old Salt is a wicket-keeper batsman from England. In such a situation, in the absence of Pant, he can play as a wicketkeeper in the Delhi team. Salt has played 11 ODIs and 13 T20 Internationals in his career so far. Apart from Salt, the Delhi team has also bought Pacer Mukesh Kumar (Rs 5.5 crore), Riley Rosso (Rs 4.6 crore), Manish Pandey (Rs 2.4 crore), Ishant Sharma (Rs 50 lakh) in the auction.

Such is the team of Delhi

Delhi Capitals Full Squad: Rishabh Pant, David Warner, Prithvi Shaw, Mukesh Kumar, Rilee Rossouw, Manish Pandey, Ishant Sharma, Phil Salt, Ripple Patel, Rovman Powell, Sarfaraz Khan, Yash Dhull, Mitchell Marsh, Lalit Yadav, Akshar Patel, Enrique Norkhia, Chetan Sakaria, Kamlesh Nagerkoti, Khalil Ahmed, Lungi Engidi, Mustafizur Rahman, Aman Khan, Kuldeep Yadav, Praveen Dubey and Vicky Ostwal.
