The Purani Dilli 6 team, which reached the semi-finals in the 2024 season, has announced that Rishabh Pant will be their marquee player for the upcoming Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2025. This move demonstrates the team’s commitment to compete for the title. Their semi-final match in DPL 2024 was washed out.
Team owner Akash Nangia welcomed Pant’s return, emphasizing his importance to the team. Pant’s leadership skills and his ability to win matches are seen as major assets. Pant himself spoke about the league’s success in promoting young players.
The DPL is growing, with two new men’s teams joining for the 2025 season, bringing the total to eight. Player auctions will be held in New Delhi, and matches will be played at Arun Jaitley Stadium. The new season is set to be highly competitive with new faces and returning players vying for the championship.
