IPL 2025: Very Tough To Replace Starc, Will Try To Play With Available Players, Says DC’s Nigam
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Ahead of Delhi Capitals (DC) meeting with top-ranked Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday, leg-spin bowling all-rounder Vipraj Nigam admitted that it would be a very tough ask for the side to replace Mitchell Starc, but expressed confidence in them managing to play with the rest of available players.
DC are at fifth place in the points table with 13 points and their chances of entering the playoffs look a bit more stiff, considering Starc is not coming back to India. Mustafizur Rahman, DC’s newest signing, will come to New Delhi only on Sunday, after playing in Bangladesh’s first T20I against the UAE in Sharjah on Saturday.
“It is very tough to replace a bowler like Mitchell Starc. But we have come back together and we have made a few changes to the team. Basically, we will try to start what we did at the start of the season. We don't want to feel the effects of the players who are not there. As a team, we will try to play with the available players,” said Nigam in the pre-match press conference.
