Parth Jindal gave a big statement Let us tell you that after the mega auction for the 18th season of IPL, while talking with ESPN Cricinfo, Parth Jindal said – We were very clear that we know his (Pant’s) ambitions, we know where he wants to go. Wants. He has made it clear that his dream and desire is to captain India, and that starts with captaining an IPL team. Jindal further said about Akshar Patel and the captaincy of Delhi Capitals in the upcoming season – Akshar has been with the franchise for a long time. He has been a tremendous player for the franchise. He is probably the best all-rounder in T-20 today. He has been phenomenal for us and has done a great job as the vice-captain of the franchise. Whenever Rishabh was not available, whenever Rishabh was injured, Axar stepped up and played a big role. He’s a happy guy, he keeps the dressing room very light. He’s a simple character and he’s someone who, I think, can do very good work. So we will have to take a decision, but I have not talked to Akshar about this. But he is definitely someone who keeps the dressing room together, which is a good trait for a leader.

He has made it clear in a tweet that he did not leave Delhi Capitals for money. Pant responded to a video by Star Sports, in which Sunil Gavaskar was explaining the reason behind Delhi not retaining their captain ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction. In the video, Sunil Gavaskar said that, I believe that there may be a disagreement between Delhi Capitals and Rishabh Pant regarding the retention fee of the wicketkeeper-batsman. The former batsman also said during this time that Capitals may try to buy Pant back in the mega auction to be held on 24 and 25 November.

My retention wasn’t about the money for sure that I can say 🤍 — Rishabh Pant (@RishabhPant17) November 19, 2024 Gavaskar told Star Sports- I think Delhi Capitals would like Rishabh Pant back in their team. Sometimes, when a player has to be retained, there are negotiations between the franchises and the players regarding the expected fees. As some of the players who have been retained by their franchises have demanded a higher No. 1 retention fee. So obviously I think there might be some disagreement there, but I think Delhi would want Rishabh Pant back.

They retained Axar Patel for Rs 16.5 crore, Kuldeep Yadav for Rs 13.5 crore, South African star all-rounder Tristan Stubbs for Rs 10 crore and uncapped wicketkeeper Abhishek Porel for Rs 4 crore.
