With the 2025 season of the Indian Premier League still away, there have been some massive reports about major players in the tournament possibly moving teams. One of the headliners of this rumour mill is Delhi Capitals skipper Rishabh Pant, who is slated to join the Chennai Super Kings ahead of IPL 2025.
With no official confirmation, let's look at why Rishabh Pant could leave the Delhi Capitals before IPL 2025.
3 Reasons why Rishabh Pant will leave Delhi Capitals
Ricky Ponting's exit
One of the biggest factors leading Rishabh Pant's could be the exit of former Australian World Cup-winning captain and DC head coach Ricky Ponting from the Capitals franchise. After Ponting's exit made things awkward, DC's Director of Cricket, Sourav Ganguly, called the Aussie to halt the franchise's progress. The animosity caused by these comments and Pant's incredible relationship with Ponting could be a reason behind the Indian wicketkeeper's departure from the franchise.
