However, ahead of the next season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), there’s a big moment taking place as two franchises of the tournament, Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants, who are still waiting for their maiden IPL title, traded their star players for the next season. Lucknow Super Giants traded their former captain Rishabh Pant to Delhi Capitals for mystery spinner Kuldeep Yadav.

After getting Rishabh Pant back to the Delhi Capitals, the fans have mixed opinions. The reason behind trading Rishabh Pant to his old team Delhi Capitals was his poor form and captaincy for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the last two seasons of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
