  1. Pant wants to be the leader, says Ricky Ponting Delhi Capitals got a massive blow prior to their IPL 2021 season where their regular captain Shreyas Iyer wouldn’t be available in the entire series as he has hurt his left shoulder during the first ODI between India and England. And, in his absence, Rishabh Pant will lead the team. However, Head Coach Ricky Ponting, who attended his first practice session recently, said that Rishabh Pant understands the game very well and the extra responsibility of captaincy is going to help him as well. Delhi Capitals on March 30 announced wicket-keeper batsman Pant as the skipper for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) which will start from April 9. “I think extra responsibility is going to sit really well with him. He’s that sort of a person who likes the responsibility, wants to be the main man and wants to be the leader, so I am really excited to see how he goes. We’ll help him through, but honestly, I don’t think he’s going to need much help at all,” Ponting said in a statement. You can catchMatch Prediction, IPL prediction, Live Cricket ScoreonCricadium.

  2. The former Australian legend further added that it will depend on the coaching staff and the senior players’ job to back the newly appointed captain so that he could manage things well. He added: “I think if we can get most of the talking with Rishabh about his captaincy done leading into the first game then we don’t have to worry about it as the tournament starts. The last thing you want is to be overloading the captain with all sorts of information once the tournament is underway. It’s a big part of my job, and other coaches and senior players’ job to get behind Rishabh and help him where they need to. Not only during training, but during matches as well.” Delhi Capitals will begin their campaign against Chennai Super Kings on April 10.
