IPL 2023: Not Prithvi Shaw! Star Indian all-rounder has been named as David Warner's deputy for Delhi Capitals (DC) in the forthcoming edition.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 edition is set to kick off on March 31 with the four-time winners Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to face the defending champions Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans (GT) in the season opener in Ahmedabad. Talking about the Delhi Capitals (DC), they dealt with a huge blow when their regular skipper Rishabh Pant got involved in a horrific car crash last year. As the star Indian keeper-batter is out of action for quite some time, the Delhi camp recently named David Warner as their captain for IPL 2023.
On March 16 (Thursday), the official Twitter handle of the DC franchise shared a tweet to share the news with one and all. While the Aussie opener Warner was named the captain, India's star all-rounder Axar Patel will serve as his deputy for the forthcoming edition. DC captioned the tweet, "David Warner (c), Axar Patel (vc)
All set to roar loud this #IPL2023 under the leadership of these two dynamic southpaws". Check out the tweet:
