IPL 2023: Delhi Capitals Players' Cricket Kits Stolen, Police Informed

As per the reports, Sixteen bats, along with pads, shoes, thigh pads, and gloves were missing.

In the ongoing IPL 2023, Delhi Capital’s kit bags have been stolen when they landed in New Delhi on Sunday. As per the reports, Sixteen bats, along with pads, shoes, thigh pads, and gloves were missing. According to The Indian Express, out of all the equipments that were stolen, three bats belonged to Delhi’s skipper David Warner while two of all-rounder Mitchell Marsh, three belonged to the wicketkeeper-batsman Phil Salt, and five of youngster Yash Dhull.

Other things like shoes, gloves, and other cricketing equipment were also stolen. Each bat of overseas players costs around a lakh rupees each. Players heard this news when they got their kit bags in the changing room and then eventually the news reached Delhi’s franchise. Soon, the officials registered a complaint about the missing kit bags.

“All of them were shocked when they heard that everyone had lost something or the other from their kit bags. This is the first time such an incident has happened and the matter was soon raised to the logistics department, police and later at the airport. The investigation is on,” a source in Delhi Capitals confirmed.

Delhi’s airport DCP spoke to the Indian Express and revealed that two men on Tuesday came to the IGI Airport and said that their kit was missing from their bags.

“Our duty officer asked them to write a complaint with all the details and gave them a paper. They said that they would get all the details and will file a complaint. Appropriate legal action would be taken,” he said.

This is the first time in the history of IPL that a franchise has lost cricket equipments while traveling.
