Ben Duckett joins the Capitals, bringing a relentless, high-octane brand of cricket that refuses to play on the backfoot.

A master of the unorthodox, Duckett has redefined modern opening with a fearless approach that has seen him smash a record-breaking 165 against Australia in the 2025 Champions Trophy and a blistering 153 against India in Test cricket.

Ben’s ability to manipulate the field with clinical sweeps and reverse-sweeps makes him a tactical nightmare for opposition captains on subcontinental tracks. He is also a high-quality gloveman who provides the squad with immense tactical flexibility. His left-handed firebrand at the top of the order is designed to maximize the powerplay and leave bowlers bamboozled.

Get ready for a masterclass in audacity. With Ben Duckett behind the stumps and at the top of the order, there will surely be fireworks in Delhi whenever he plays. Welcome to Dilli Ben!
