NEW DELHI: They are India teammates, and they were teammates last season at Delhi Capitals too. After DC registered a thrilling one-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants in their Indian Premier League 2025 season opener in Visakhapatnam, the trio — DC skipper Axar Patel, DC spinner Kuldeep Yadav, and LSG skipper Rishabh Pant — shared a lighthearted moment on the field.
Kuldeep, batting at No.9, contributed just five runs off five balls but played a crucial role, adding 21 valuable runs for the ninth wicket with match-hero Ashutosh Sharma during DC’s 210-run chase. His unexpected boundary off Prince Yadav in the penultimate over became a talking point.
