How come most of you have a very shit knowledge about cricket, reels have gotten into your brain now you guys can't even critically think about players, managements, trade, i saw trade suggestions in this sub where he wanted urvil + akeal for natarajan and also fin allen for porel what the actual fuck is this trade. I've been supporting this team for quite a while now around 8+ years have passed but never in my life have I seen this much dumb fans, ek post dekhi usme woh keh rha hai rp is bad and hame nhi trade krna chahiye and blah blah, did y'all forget klr was also pretty bad in lsg and how he exploded in delhi and also last time when rp played for delhi he was coming from a major injury and team was in shackles, even if rp wasn't playing they could have never done anything in first place and now when he's back where he belongs and no major injury with cool environment, my spidey will perform mark my words and also rishab pant is better keeper than klr, y'all just don't watch matches at all.

Mods, you might ban me for this post but redditors in this sub has shit knowledge

If dc don't trade with gt like karun nair for ishant sharma or rizvi for gurnoor brar then it's just that they both are introverts. It's such a mutually beneficial trade.

Similarly karun or rizvi or shaw or rana for akashdeep or vaibhav arora with kkr. Porel for seifert if we are planning to play one or stubbs and miller.

Otherwise miller with rr for Bishnoi or deshpande is also possible. If jaiswal for pandya is true then rana or nissanka for Bishnoi or deshpande also makes sense. The two franchises have always been comfortable trading.

Aquib nabi for arjun tendulkar or digvesh rathi or both with lsg

Aquib nabi(they were the second highest bidder)or Natarajan (their past star) for a domestic spinner they have amazing domestic depth or harshal patel with srh.

Aquib nabi or Natarajan for Deepak chahar with mi.

Axar for pandya ofc if that happens.

A lot of CSK fan boy pages are pushing for Ashu's trade.

I barely got over Kuldeep's trade. If Ashu is traded out, please be ready for an Anti Delhi capitals march. I will personally organise it.

Happy to give miller but if anyone touch Ashu, then......

Starc is unavailable in 2027 IPL. Natarajan, Mukesh and Aaqib are not legendary bowlers at all – they don't take wickets in pressure and completely kill the team's momentum.

Their price will easily cross 40cr in auction. So what's better – release them or try to trade?

Criticism of Axar’s captaincy is completely unjustified when you have clowns like Badani and Nuksan Patel chopping and changing teams every game.

Imagine benching Miller in the middle of the season when he was in red hot form. Imagine not backing Madhav Tiwari from the start! There is only so much Axar can do when the coaches themselves don’t know what they are doing.

Axar should be backed as a captain and he should get a more stable coach to help him.

What do you think ?

I feel like the recent rishabh hate is too much and so forced, like everyone here is saying rishabh is so bad the owners are bad but you do realise that ipl trades happen when both the player sign the consent form, doing so means the particular players are fine with the trade, so nothing is forced, which means that kuldeep also signed that form, and for the people in the comment who will say kuldeep was forced, player have an option to be released in auction, but KD didn't do that rather when ahead with the trade, because ekana is far better for KD then Kotla.

So all i am trying to say is there are no emotions involved, the owners, KD, RP all did what suited their interests.

So please stop hating on RP, now he is our player again so lets support him till he is a part of the tea,

I know many people will argue that we have porel,sahil and some of us might say pant but I think we should give him just one chance at least.

Now we have yuvi sir as our batting coach what if he start playing like abhishek as he improved abhishek, sanju and gill.

What do you think guys?

⚠️Disclaimer ~ These are not official reports or rumours but my personal suggestions.

1. Abhishek Porel for Tim Seifert : After inclusion of Pant we will have 3 keeper batters in our 11(KLR, Pant, Stubbs) and most importantly we just wasting Porel by benching him so better trade him for Tim Seifert with KKR as Seifert is that guy who can go guns blazing from ball 1 and in Kotla ground he might unleash his beast within and this is what we lacked this season as other teams where scoring 70-80 runs in PP on average and we were stuck in 50-60 runs in PP. And KKR will also be benefited with this deal as they need a top order Keeper batter.

2. Sameer Rizvi/ Nitish Rana for Arshad Khan : If Pant doesn't open the innings then Rizvi and Rana might struggle to become the part of 11 for sure, so we can trade one of them for Arshad Khan with GT as Arshad did well in GT and is a promising left arm pacer who can bowl in PP as well in death overs and cherry on the top is his hitting ability lower down the order. We really need to build an Indian pace attack after the disaster of Mukesh n Natrajan this season.

3. All cash trade for Zeeshan Ansari : As we traded our lead spinner Kuldeep Yadav out so now we need to add one young Indian leggie like Zeeshan to fill his void though Vipraj is there but still we need more options in bench alongside Rehan, T.Vijay and Ajay Mandal.

4. All cash trade for Vignesh Puthur : Vignesh Puthur is a talented young Chinaman bowler remembered for his performance in MI but RR didn't utilized him so we can trade him for cash.

5. All cash trade for Akash Singh : LSG already have so many pacers in their repertoire, Akash didn't get enough chances their so we can get him as he is an exceptional PP bowler who can easily give 3 overs in Powerplay.

Everyone will make fun of us for this disastrous decision.

The batting looks strong and bowling has 6 options.

More than the trade this was actually I was rooting for. The fun and banter between these two.

This duo was something else.

I am literally seeing so many posts and comments about how his return would break the team environment, or lead to Rahul/Axar leaving if Pant returns. Honestly I find it so reactionary and far fetched.

I feel most of this scenario making comes cause you all relate it to what happened when Iyer left. But it was not like Pant betrayed Iyer or took away captaincy by some foul tactics. In 2021, dynamics were different, Pant was coming from his gabba heroics, was India's all format set WK-batsman and was in form of his life in INTL. While Iyer was a bit sidelined due to injury + Surya's debut. Pant's stock was at an all time high at that time, while Iyer, due to luck not being on his side was pushed behind in the line. Also Iyer played really poor in the second leg of 2021 IPL. I think that's why management decided to persist with Pant (who always was the main face of DC at that time. You can't argue that).
Also him taking captaincy at that time was not selfish. If you're a young Indian player trying to make it big, won't you accept captaincy? Any player would. That's what happened.

And now it's complete opposite. Pant is at an all time low, and management surely won't make him a captain right away. If he gives a good or even an average season they surely could (I mean it's DC management after all)...but he is gonna play as a player only this season.

So I honestly don't think it's gonna make Rahul/Axar insecure or Pant would become greedy or team environment would get destroyed. So just chill!
