# Mayank Dagar eyes IPL return through DPL debut 2026-08-08T09:48:09+00:00 | Sports | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Mayank Dagar will make his maiden Delhi Premier League appearance, playing for North Delhi Strikers. The left-arm spinner, 29, switched from Himachal Pradesh to Delhi this year after securing a No-Objection Certificate. Dagar, who played eight IPL matches for Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bengaluru in 2023 and 2024, hopes the DPL platform will help him return to the league. He has 137 first-class wickets from 51 matches and was part of India's 2016 U-19 World Cup squad. Some DDCA members called him an outsider, but Dagar, nephew of Virender Sehwag, said his entire family is from Delhi. ## Coverage - thehindu.com Tags: Cricket, DDCA, Delhi Premier League, domestic cricket, IPL, Mayank Dagar Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/mayank-dagar-eyes-ipl-return-through-dpl-debut/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
