The Delhi Capitals (DC) announced on Saturday, May 17 that their vice-captain Faf du Plessis and Tristan Stubbs have rejoined the squad ahead of IPL 2025 resumption.

The franchise also announced that Aussie pacer Mitchell Starc and South African batter Donovan Ferreira are not available.

“The franchise has also confirmed that Australian pacer Mitchell Starc and South African all-rounder Donovan Ferreira are currently unavailable. Delhi Capitals fully respects their decision, and extends its support and best wishes for their continued success,” the franchise said in a statement.

In absence of Starc for the remainder of the tournament, DC have roped in Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman as a replacement for Jake Fraser-McGurk, who will not be coming back to India due to personal reasons.

Currently, DC are fifth in the IPL 2025 points table with 13 points from 11 games. They are in contention for the playoffs and have to win their remaining three games to push for the playoffs stage.

DC take on Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans in their next fixture on Sunday, May 18.
