Yuvraj Singh is appointed as an assistant and batting coach for Delhi Capitals, working alongside head coach Sourav Ganguly. ESPN Cricinfo, Times of India and India Today report the role as part of Delhi Capitals’ coaching staff for the upcoming IPL season, with Yuvraj focusing on batting.
Multiple outlets also describe the appointment as Yuvraj’s first formal coaching position after his playing career. NDTV and the Indian outlets note his international experience for India, including major tournament success, alongside his long IPL association with Delhi—where he previously played during a record signing in 2015.
The reports frame the move within broader staff changes at Delhi. Free Press Journal adds that Delhi has overhauled its team after missing the playoffs in recent seasons, with Ganguly replacing Hemang Badani and Venugopal Rao departing. It also mentions Yuvraj’s prior mentoring involvement with Rishabh Pant, though his role with the franchise is now formalized. Sources broadly agree on the coaching titles, the working partnership with Ganguly, and Yuvraj’s Delhi connections, with details such as the specific season reference varying between outlets.
