Shreyas Iyer Sends An Emotional Message To DC Squad

In a video message to the entire squad, Iyer remarked that he'll always stay beside the team and threw weight behind the team to lift the IPL trophy this year. 23-year-old Rishabh Pant will captain the Delhi Capitals in place of Iyer for the entire season. Here's what Shreyas Iyer said in his emotional message to the DC squad: 

"Dear Delhi, 

I speak to you today as a fellow fan of the team we love. We fight the same fight, we always did. We know it won't be easy but we know what it takes to raise the cup. We have worked hard, harder than before. We have put in the yards harder than before and the best part, we go beyond than just a team. Make no mistake about it. Every ball, every game, you'll have me in your corner. Your biggest supporter, with the loudest cheer. C'mon Delhi, roar macha!"
