Delhi Capitals are considering a significant change in their batting order as they strive to secure a playoff spot in IPL 2025. According to reports, the team is likely to move KL Rahul back to the opening slot to provide stability and experience during the Powerplay. Rahul, who has been a versatile player this season, has been shuffled around the middle order, but management believes placing him at the top will help establish a rhythm at the start of the innings.
With only three league games left, Delhi Capitals are looking to bounce back from a recent slump in form. They currently sit fifth in the points table and need to secure wins in their upcoming matches against Gujarat Titans, Mumbai Indians, and Punjab Kings. The team will also rely on their bowling attack led by T Natarajan, Mustafizur Rahman, Mohit Sharma, and Kuldeep Yadav to support their batting reshuffle.
Promoting Rahul to the top order is expected to benefit the team by allowing him to rotate strike and ease pressure on other explosive batsmen. The effectiveness of this decision will be evident in the Capitals’ upcoming matches as they aim to rejuvenate their campaign.
