The two new captains of the Delhi Capitals (DC) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have been announced.
Australian batsman David Warner will lead the Delhi Capitals side while the South African batter Aiden Markram will helm Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 16th season of the Indian Premier League.
Indian all-rounder Axar Patel has been appointed as the vice-captain of the DC team.
A new captain was required for the SRH after Kane Williamson, who led their team last year, was released by the franchise before the auction.
The DC team was led by Rishabh Pant in the last season, but since he met with a car accident, Rishabh Pant will not be able to play for the upcoming season that will start on March 31.
