Formerly known as Delhi Daredevils, the franchise cricket team is based in Delhi in the Indian Premier League.
The GMR Group and JSW Group jointly own the franchise, Delhi Capitals. The team's home ground is Arun Jaitley Stadium, New Delhi.
The franchise, over time, had enjoyed the services of many stars picks in their squad in the form of Virender Sehwag, Ab de Villiers, David Warner, Mahela Jayawardene, Kevin Petersen, and Andre Russell but failed to lift the IPL title even once. Rishabh Pant currently captains the team. It has a talented pool of players like David Warner, Prithvi Shaw, Kuldeep Yadav, Mustafizur Rahman, and Shardul Thakur in the current squad. Ricky Ponting and Shane Watson are their head and assistant coach, respectively.
The team placed at 8th position in the table looks a little inconsistent with their performance this year and is battling the covid outbreak in their camp. The team keeps the potential to perform well and outdo other teams to qualify for the playoffs this season as well.
Major honors: Of the fourteen editions, Delhi Capitals made it to playoffs five times; however, they could reach finals only once in 2020 to emerge runner-up in that season.
