3. Delhi Capitals (DC):
Quite an easy option to pick. Dashing Shreyas Iyer will lead the Delhi based franchise in the IPL 2022. Iyer got injured ahead of the IPL 2021 due to which he had to sit out of the first half.
It was a masterstroke from the Delhi management to appoint Rishabh Pant leader of the side in presence of experienced Steve Smith and Ajinkya Rahane. Pant has shown immense improvement with his apt decisions. He has held the number 1 position in the points table of IPL 2021 with six wins out of eight games.
If Iyer gets fit for the second phase of IPL 2021, which will begin on September 17, he will eventually take over his role once again.
The right-handed batsman took Delhi Capitals (DC) to its maiden IPL final last year and this year the team will look to bag the trophy for the first time.
