The Delhi Capitals (DC) team management has confirmed that Shreyas Iyer will continue to lead the side in IPL 2019 as well. The right-handed batsman has impressed everyone with his swashbuckling performances in the previous editions of the IPL.

In the last season, the Mumbaikar scored 411 runs from his 14 games, which included four half-centuries. He led the young side impressively too.

The 24-year-old will try his level best to lead his side to their maiden IPL triumph.

Pant scored five fifties and one century from his 14 IPL innings. He also made his international debut post the IPL success, and has scored one century and two fifties from his 12 Test innings so far.
