Reports suggest a significant IPL trade ahead of the 2027 season, with Rishabh Pant potentially moving back to Delhi Capitals from Lucknow Super Giants in exchange for spinner Kuldeep Yadav.
A significant player trade is reportedly being considered in the Indian Premier League for the upcoming 2027 season. Sources indicate that star wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant might be on his way back to his former franchise, the Delhi Capitals.
