The Delhi Capitals’ (DC) 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL) season has been quite the rollercoaster thus far. The team is now focused on recovering from a bad start as they get ready to play the Gujarat Titans (GT) on April 17. Rishabh Pant, the captain of DC, has expressed his confidence in the team’s methodology.
After overcoming a near-fatal injury that sidelined him for 14 months, Pant’s return to the IPL stage has been eagerly awaited. The 26-year-old has, however, scored 194 runs and recorded scores of 51, 55, and 41 in three of his previous six innings, displaying signs of his genuine talent since his return.

Pant is still positive about the Capitals’ prospects despite the team’s early setbacks. The colourful wicketkeeper batter underlined the value of the team’s procedure in fostering a pleasant atmosphere in a recent interview with Star Sports.
“I believe that the Delhi Capitals have been working on a lengthy process to establish a positive atmosphere here that will help us perform well. We have received good training facilities, a positive mindset, and consistent support from Ricky Ponting, the captain, and the management. We had a conversation over a meal on how to improve Delhi’s atmosphere,” he remarked.

I’m aware that outcomes count: Rishabh Pant
He also discussed the players’ mutual trust as well as the strategy the Delhi-based team is using to improve its performance.
“I understand that outcomes are important, but as you work on a process, you’ll recognise when adjustments are needed and where they should be made to best serve your needs. However, he continued, “you are not aware of where you are going with the game if you are not in a process and you are working hard.”
“But now we have created a process in Delhi Capitals, and look after where the player is coming from, we need to give him this thought process, we need to help him understand these roles, these small things, and the trust factor between the players, these small things play a major role,” he said.
Pant’s faith in the group’s methodology will be essential as the Capitals get ready to play the Titans. The Caps are motivated to mount a big comeback and record their third victory of the season, but their ability to adjust and carry out their game plan will be put to the test. This is thanks in part to Pant’s leadership and the backing of the management.
