Pant is the most expensive player in IPL history.

Rishabh Pant Was bought by Lucknow for Rs 27 crore before IPL 2025. After this, team owner Sanjeev Goenka had claimed that this player will win the IPL several times in the next 10 years, but Pant seems to be leaving the team in just two years. Rishabh Pant: This player was average in both IPL 2025 and IPL 2026 seasons. In IPL 2025, Pant could score 269 runs and in 2025 he scored 312 runs with his bat.
Why is Kuldeep Yadav leaving Delhi?
It is not yet clear why Kuldeep Yadav is leaving Delhi Capitals. However, this player did not perform well in IPL 2026. This player could take only 10 wickets in 12 matches. His economy rate was also more than 10 runs per over. Kuldeep Yadav was retained by Delhi Capitals for Rs 13.25 crore. This player was with this team since the year 2022 but now he has made up his mind about his team.
KL Rahul can become captain
Another big news is that KL Rahul can be given the captaincy of Delhi Capitals. KL Rahul has previously captained Lucknow Supergiants and now Delhi is also in the mood to make him the captain. Another big update is that Sourav Ganguly can become the head of the coaching staff of the team. Next season, Delhi Capitals can enter the field with many big changes.
