Ajinkya Rahane new look: Delhi Capitals ask fans to rate batsman's new looks

Indian batsman Ajinkya Rahane is currently out of the reckoning from India's limited-overs squads. However, the Mumbai-based cricketer remains one of India's most important members of the Test side. Rahane is now set to feature in the upcoming 14th edition of the Indian Premier League where he will represent the Delhi Capitals.

Delhi Capitals reveal Ajinkya Rahane's new look

Ahead of IPL 2021, the official Twitter handle of the Delhi Capitals took to the micro-blogging site and revealed Ajinkya Rahane new look for the cricketing extravaganza. The franchise also asked their fans to rate the Ajinkya Rahane new look. Here's a look at the post.

Twitter was abuzz after Delhi Capitals unveiled Rahane's new look for IPL 2021. Several reactions poured in as fans came up with creative and hysterical responses. There was also a certain section of fans who urged the franchise to make Rahane the DC captain. Here's a look at a few reactions.

Meanwhile, according to the latest DC team news IPL 2021, the franchise is currently in a spot of bother after their skipper Shreyas Iyer injured himself during the first ODI vs England. If reports are to be believed, the DC captain will at least miss the first half of the IPL 2021. Shreyas Iyer's injury means DC will have to look for a new captain.

Indian wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant who has been in scintillating form in recent times is certainly one of the front-runners for the captain's role. Former Rajasthan Royals skipper Steve Smith who was bought by Delhi at the IPL 2021 auction could also be a potential replacement for Iyer. It will be interesting to see who the franchise appoints as the new DC captain.
