Gautam Gambhir was on Wednesday  March 07,2018 appointed as the captain of Delhi Daredevils (DD) for 2018 Indian Premier League season

Gautam Gambhir will be in his second stint with the Delhi Daredevils after exiting the two-time winners Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) ahead of the 2018 IPL auction.

 Gautam Gambhir had joined KKR in 2011 and  went on to win Indian Premier League titles in 2012 and 2014 as captain.

Gautam Gambhir was part of the Delhi Daredevils franchise for the first three seasons before KKR smashed the record books to sign him up for $2.5 million in 2011.

The 36-year-old former Indian left-hander was bought by the Delhi Daredevils (DD) for Rs 2.8 crore, and in a media event on Wednesday the left-handed batsman was revealed as the franchise’s choice for captaincy. “I am more excited than I have ever been,” said Gambhir.
