The Story in Brief
Karnataka's Shubhang Hegde and Bengal's Karan Lal impressed Sourav Ganguly and Yuvraj Singh during Delhi Capitals' talent trials in Bengaluru, The Times of India reports. The duo showcased all-round skills across two practice games at the Just Cricket Academy ground. Both Ganguly, set to be head coach, and Yuvraj, slated as batting coach, noted their performances as noteworthy ahead of the IPL auction later this year.
Hegde, 25, scored 280 runs at a strike rate of 139.30 and took 14 wickets in the Maharaja T20 Trophy. Vidarbha's Aman Mokhade also caught attention with consistent batting. The camp included mystery spinners like Shivam Shukla and Ravikiran M. Delhi Capitals, who finished sixth last IPL season, seek a squad overhaul for the 2025 season.
The Indian Opinion
The buzz around Karan Lal and Shubhang Hegde feels overdone for a practice trial. Both showed grit, but impressions from two net sessions do not guarantee IPL success. Fans and pundits should wait for the auction and actual match pressure, not hype scrimmages as proof of stardom.
