Delhi Capitals bought KL Rahul on the first day of the IPL 2025 mega auction. The Delhi team then paid Rs 14 crore for it. In this case, it is entirely possible that Rahul becomes the captain of Delhi. Rahul has previously captained Kings XI Punjab and Lucknow Supergiants. Now on the second day of the auction, Delhi has bought RCB captain Faf du Plessis. He has received Rs 2 crore. Now with the arrival of Du Plessis, Rahul’s chances of becoming captain appear to be fading.
Captained RCB team
Faf du Plessis captained RCB for three seasons, during which the team reached the playoffs twice. He has vast experience as a captain and is good at changing the bowling. He has captained 42 IPL matches so far, of which RCB has won 21 and lost 21. This means the number of games he captained. Half the battle is won. Apart from the IPL, he also captained South Africa in 37 T20 international matches.
Du Plessis scored 4571 runs in IPL
Apart from captaining the team, Faf du Plessis can also feature for Delhi Capitals. Once he establishes the crease, it’s difficult to stop him. He is considered one of the best batsmen in the IPL. He has scored 4571 runs in the IPL so far, of which 94 is his best.
Delhi haven’t won the title yet
Delhi Capitals have not won the IPL title yet. The team reached the 2020 finals, but then the team had to face failure. Delhi bought experienced players like Faf du Plessis, Mitchell Starc, T Natarajan, Mohit Sharma and Karan Nair in the auction this time players.
