The IPL 2025 mega auction is approaching in a few days, promising significant changes across teams. Delhi Capitals have already made a crucial decision ahead of this event. Ricky Ponting has been relieved of his duties as head coach after seven years with the team. Despite leading the team since 2018, where they reached playoffs and even the final in 2020, Delhi Capitals have struggled to maintain consistency, failing to qualify for playoffs in the last three seasons.
Consequently, the franchise’s owners have opted for a change in leadership, hoping to revamp their strategy under new coaching personnel. Assistant coach Pravin Amre will remain in his role, while Sourav Ganguly, the team director, is reportedly interested in assuming the head coach position. The Delhi Capitals are now focusing on reshaping their approach for the upcoming season.
