DC Practice Match 2026 Scorecard: KL Rahul Returns as Opener

Delhi Capitals are entering the Indian Premier League 2026 with a refreshed squad after just missing out on the playoffs last season. They are going to begin their campaign on 1st April, 2026, in an away fixture against Lucknow Super Giants. One of the best batsmen in IPL, KL Rahul, is likely to play a key role at the top of the order, expected to open the batting again, while players like David Miller, Tristan Stubbs, and Kuldeep Yadav add strength in different areas of the team.

Delhi Capitals have been quite active ahead of IPL 2026, making several changes to their squad. During the auction, they also picked up players like Pathum Nissanka, Lungi Ngidi, and Kyle Jamieson to improve both their batting and bowling options. However, the team has faced a few challenges as well, including Ben Duckett pulling out just before the tournament.

There is also some doubt around one of the best bowlers in IPL, Mitchell Starc’s availability, but the team management remains confident about their current fast bowling options. They are also set to play their first practice match of the season on March 25 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium behind closed doors.
