nevada Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Who knows, he could turn out to be our own Graeme Smith! I want to see him make the winning Captain's speech in both matches against RCB and bag the MOM in at-least one. Link to comment

ShoonyaSifar Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 What an incredible last 4 months for Pant. From nearly bring discarded by his national team coach-captain to now leading his IPL franchise. Very early in his career without much leadership experience. He did lead Delhi to Ranji final in a season but was sacked midway. Punter does rate him highly and will fully back him. Expect him to rely a lot on Rahane and Ashwin. kirkutfan and Norman 2 Link to comment
SK_IH Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Well that is perfect, past vs present. Mosher and Adamant 2 Link to comment
Norman Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Absolutely loving this new trend of franchises appointing Indian youngsters as captains. Delhi has been brilliant in this regard with both Iyer and now Pant. RR with Samson and Punjab with Rahul last season.... Hope KKR goes the same way with Gill.

New guy Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Someone had a great thread about how we have not groomed a replacement captain for Kohli. Youngsters leading IPL from so young is the right way to do that Stan AF 1 Link to comment
Old guy Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 what a year he is having..sad for iyer but this is right decision instead of making some old indian or international player the captain. Link to comment

Straight Drive Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Wonderful move. I hope he uses captaincy authority to bat in top 3. Link to comment
