IPL 2026: Can Axar shed ‘forever the bridesmaid’ tag this season?

 If Delhi Capitals are to end their IPL title drought, Axar Patel will have to step up with the bat, ball and as a captain. Interestingly, Axar has never crossed the 300-run mark in the IPL in the 162 games he has played over twelve years. The all-rounder is yet to better his debut season with the ball, where he picked up 17 wickets for Kings XI Punjab, now Punjab Kings. If Delhi Capitals are to end their IPL title drought, Axar Patel will have to step up with the bat, ball and as a captain.
