Left-arm spinner Axar had tested positive for Covid-19 ahead of the season and is under isolation and treatment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;<strong>Delhi Capitals have brought in Shams Mulani as a short-term COVID-19 replacement for Axar Patel for their VIVO Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 campaign,<\/strong>&quot; said a statement from the Indian Premier League (IPL).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Axar had tested positive for the Covid-19 virus during his mandatory quarantine ahead of the season and was subsequently taken to BCCI&#39;s medical facility for isolation and treatment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;<strong>Mulani, a left-handed batsman and a slow left-arm orthodox bowler from Mumbai comes in as a replacement under VIVO IPL&#39;s Player Regulations. Under Regulation 6.1 (c), franchisees are allowed to sign a short-term replacement player until the original squad member is permitted to re-enter the team&#39;s bio-secure environment,<\/strong>&quot; the statement said further.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"page-break-after:always\"><span style=\"display:none\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;<strong>Hence, Mulani will only be a part of the Delhi Capitals side until Axar recovers and is allowed to join the team,<\/strong>&quot; the statement added. This will be 24-year-old Mulani&#39;s first stint in IPL. He has featured in 10 first-class, 30 domestic one-dayers, and 25 T20s for his state team Mumbai so far.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Delhi Capitals have also signed Anirudha Joshi as a replacement for the injured Shreyas Iyer for the remainder of the tournament. Iyer was ruled out of the tournament after sustaining an injury during the recent India-England One-Day International series.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Joshi, a middle-order batsman, and an off-spinner join his third IPL team, having been a part of the Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals in the past. He represents Karnataka in domestic cricket and has featured in 17 domestic one-dayers and 22 T20 matches so far.<\/p>\r\n",
