IPL: Faf du Plessis named Delhi Capitals' vice captain

March 18, 2025

The Delhi Capitals on Monday named former South Africa skipper Faf du Plessis as vice captain of the franchise ahead of the Indian Premier League 2025.

- STATESMAN NEWS SERVICE

Du Plessis, who had earlier led the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) till the end of IPL 2024, was released by the franchise ahead of the mega auction last year, and was subsequently acquired by DC for his base price of Rs 2 crore. He was preferred for the vice-captain's role ahead of KL Rahul, another former IPL captain before his arrival in DC this year.

The 40-year-old Du Plessis has been a part of the IPL since 2012 when he played for Chennai Super Kings (CSK), and continued his association till the end of the 2015 season, before moving to Rising Pune Supergiant for two seasons when CSK were banned from the IPL, and went back to CSK, staying there till 2021.

During the 2022 auction, RCB bought him and, with Virat Kohli stepping down as the team's captain ahead of that season, the South African was handed captaincy of the team. He led them for three seasons, and while RCB reached the playoffs in both 2022 and 2024, they are yet to win the trophy.
