IPL 2025: Under the captaincy of Akshar Patel, Delhi Capitals started in season 18. The team had won the initial 4 matches continuously, after which it seemed that Delhi could become the first team to make a place in the playoffs. But after this, the team continued to rise up and down in the points table, then after the postponement of IPL, Mitchell Starc returning home proved to be a big setback for Delhi. Delhi won its last match of the season by 6 wickets against Punjab Kings on Saturday.
Delhi Capitals bought India’s Tej T Natarajan for IPL 2025 for Rs 10 crore 75 lakh, the team would have spent such a huge amount because he would expect Natarajan that he would be his important bowler. A bowler can put a maximum of 4 overs in T20, but the bowler who bought Delhi in such a huge amount, he did not even take 4 overs in the entire season.

Delhi Capitals also bought Mitchell Starc with T20 Natarajan, fans felt that both of them would be the main fast bowlers of the team. Stark even bowled brilliantly, but due to the postponement of IPL, he had to return home and he did not return again. Talking about Natarajan, he put only 3 overs throughout the season. He played only 2 matches and put 3 overs in a single match.
T Natarajan spent 3 overs against Gujarat Titans in the match played on 18 May, in which he scored 49 runs from an economy of more than 16. He proved to be very expensive, Delhi Capitals lost this match badly by 10 wickets. Sai Sudarshan scored an unbeaten 108 and Shubman Gill scored 93 not out.
