Veeru Steps Down

Virender Sehwag (veeru) has stepped down from captain ship of delhi dare devil and he would be replaced by gautam gambhir.

"I am delighted at my selection as captain of Delhi Daredevils and I am committed to deliver my best. I have always looked up to Viru. He has been a guide and friend for me. It is always difficult to fit into the shoes of someone as illustrious as him," gautam said.

"I have led Delhi in the past in Ranji Trophy and we won the title. I have also had the opportunity to lead the Delhi Daredevils in IPL-2 when Viru was injured. It was an enriching experience and hopefully I can put into practice all that I have learnt," he added.

Gambhir said he would also seek Sehwag's advice as and when needed during his stint.
