23 year old Shrevas Iyer is new skipper of Delhi Daredevil after Gambhir relinquished the captaincy yesterday.
Gambhir was bought for Rs. 2.8 crore by Daredevils, considering his previous record. As of now, Delhi Daredevil languishes on bottom of IPL 2018 table.
True, that I’ve stepped down from DD captaincy. Just to clarify it was my call, nothing from the management or coaching staff. I may not be leading from the front but I will be the last man standing for @DelhiDaredevils. No individual bigger than d team. Very much a #DilDIlli
