The young skipper takes Delhi Capitals into the Play-offs
Adding to his batting abilities, Rishabh Pant has managed to prove his mettle with captain’s hat as well. He has taken Delhi Capitals to the play-offs in the very first season of him captaining the side. With 10 wins in 13 matches, DC is currently on the top of the table and have secured their spot in the top 2 as well. This mean they already have an extra game in order to qualify for the Finals.

Rishabh Pant was appointed the captain of the Delhi Capitals side at the start of the 2021 season. This was done as the former captain, Shreyas Iyer, was unavailable due to an injury. Later, when Iyer was available during the second leg of the season, the DC management decided to let Pant lead the side for the entire season and Pant has proved their decision right.
