3 Delhi Capitals players who could get a bigger role under Sourav Ganguly
Sourav Ganguly takes charge as Delhi Capitals head coach ahead of IPL 2027, and these three players stand to benefit from the change.
3. Vipraj Nigam
Kuldeep Yadav's departure to the Lucknow Super Giants ahead of IPL 2027 leaves a gap in Delhi Capitals' spin attack. Vipraj Nigam, an all-rounder known for his leg-spin bowling and lower-order hitting, has been in and around India squads in 2026 and is part of the Delhi Capitals setup.
With Axar Patel remaining as captain and first-choice spinner, the second spinner's role becomes important. Nigam's leg-spin offers a different dimension alongside Axar's left-arm orthodox bowling, and a new coaching regime under Ganguly could give him the extended run he needs to establish himself in that position.
