New Delhi: JSW-GMR co-owned Delhi Capitals have decided to retain Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Tristan Stubbs and Abishek Porel ahead of this year’s Indian Premier League mega auction.

This decision underscores our commitment to building a competitive and dynamic squad. Our management, coaching staff and analysts have worked tirelessly to assess player performances and contributions, ensuring we are well-positioned for success.

Speaking on the occasion, team Chairman and co-owner Kiran Kumar Grandhi expressed, “I’m satisfied with our retentions, and believe we have a strong and balanced core around which we aim to build the rest of our squad. The mega auction is always an exciting and dynamic experience that often throws surprises. I wish all franchises and players the very best. I am confident that we will be able to put together a robust and terrific squad, capable of winning the trophy.”

Team co-owner Parth Jindal said, “In Axar, Kuldeep, Tristan and Abishek we have the ideal blend of experience and youth, and I am very pleased with our retentions. I would have liked to retain more players who have turned out for DC, but the rules mean we have to pick strategically. Going into the auction we will have two RTM cards and that leaves the door open for players who have worn the DC shirt in the past, to carry on with us. We know who we want and will make sure to get some if not all the players back. With this important milestone behind us, the team is working tirelessly on the mega auction. Our intent is to build a strong and balanced squad that can bring home a much-awaited IPL trophy to our city.”
