Prithvi Shaw has been Delhi Capitals’ pocket-rocket opener since 2018, lighting up seven IPL seasons with a fearless brand of batting built on one mantra—see the ball, hit the ball. Across 79 innings the right-hander has piled up 1,892 runs at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 147, turning every delivery into potential fireworks. Those numbers translate to 238 fours and 61 sixes that have dented advertising hoardings and opposition morale alike. While the three-figure mark has narrowly eluded him—his highest remains an agonising 99—Shaw has still crossed fifty on 14 occasions, proving he can both explode and anchor when the situation demands. Every season the 24-year-old has donned the DC blue, making the Ferozeshah Kotla his personal playground. With 238 boundaries already to his name, Shaw is chasing the rare 250-fours club, and at his current pace the landmark could arrive as early as IPL 2025.

M Tiwari IPL 2025: Delhi Capitals’ new all-round talent in numbers M Tiwari arrived on the IPL stage with Delhi Capitals in the 2025 season and, in a lightning-quick cameo, hinted at the fearless brand of cricket he brings to the franchise. In his solitary innings so far, the 22-year-old strode in and sent the first legal ball he faced racing for three runs, finishing his four-ball stay at a brisk strike-rate of 75. While the boundary count shows zero fours and zero sixes, the intent was crystal clear—rotate the strike, keep the scoreboard ticking, and set the tone for the middle order. With the ball, Tiwari was tossed the responsibility of the 20th over against a set batter. Bowling just six balls, he conceded 14 runs and claimed the vital dot that sealed the game for DC. Though the raw numbers read 0 wickets, the 14-run economy figure is skewed by one mis-hit that flew for six; otherwise, yorkers and slower cutters kept the batsman guessing. That solitary over showcased composure beyond his years and confirmed his role as a handy sixth-bowling option for skipper Rishabh Pant. Across both disciplines, Tiwari’s first impression is of a modern-day utility cricketer who thrives under pressure. One innings, one over, but already a storyline: 3 runs with the bat, 14 runs defended with the ball, and a maiden IPL victory to his name in Delhi colours. Fantasy managers and Capitals fans alike will be tracking his progress closely as the 2025 caravan rolls on.
