If losing all five matches of the season was not enough, Delhi Capitals’ IPL 2023 campaign went from bad to worse after cricketing equipment worth Rs. 16 lakh belonging to a few overseas players in the team were reportedly stolen in transit. As per a report by news agency ANI, the kits were stolen from their luggage after they landed from Bangalore at the Delhi Airport.
The players, however, learned about the matter a day later as their kit bags arrived from the cargo a day after. Most players have lost their bats, with at least five bats being stolen of batsman Yash Dhull alone. It has been learnt that the bats by overseas players are worth Rs. 1 lakh each. After the team officials learnt about the matter, they reported the theft to the police and a probe was ordered.
