Purani Dilli 6 had an impressive run in the 2024 season, making it to the semi-finals with steady performances during the league stage. The Purani Dilli 6 Squad, led by star batter Rishabh Pant, was regarded as one of the key players. Unfortunately, as they gear up for DPL 2025, they face a setback with Pant suffering a toe fracture during the India vs England Test series, casting doubt on his participation in the early matches.
Still, the Purani Dilli 6 team remains strong, with experienced like Lalit Yadav, Prince Mishra and Aayush Singh ready to step up and keep the momentum going. Though Pant's unavailability might disrupt their team balance but they still are one of the top sides to watch out for in the Delhi Premier League 2025 season.
