IPL 2025: Aakash Chopra Backs Axar Patel To Lead Delhi Capitals
Indian T20I: Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra has identified three potential candidates for the Delhi Capitals captaincy role - Axar Patel, KL Rahul and Faf du Plessis - in the IPL 2025. He believes Axar could be the frontrunner given his recent rise in stature within Indian cricket.
Delhi retained Axar for Rs 16.50 crore ahead of the mega auction last year, reflecting their faith in his abilities. They later secured KL Rahul for Rs 14 crore and Faf du Plessis for Rs 2 crore at the auction in Jeddah.
Axar had a productive IPL 2024 season, picking up 11 wickets at an economy rate of 7.65 while also contributing 235 runs at a strike rate of 131.28 in 12 innings.
