Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly and Yuvraj Singh were spotted at the Delhi Capitals trials recently, as rumours around a coaching setup change at the franchise gained more buzz.

Neither the former India cricketer nor the team has announced their roles, but their involvement with the Just Cricket Academy has fuelled speculation that Delhi Capitals could be all set for a major overhaul of their coaching staff.

Their presence is noteworthy given Ganguly’s longstanding association with the team and Yuvraj’s growing reputation in coaching and player development. While their appearance at the trials doesn’t confirm any changes, it has fuelled speculation that the Capitals could be planning a major reset ahead of IPL 2027.

Speculation over Yuvraj’s potential involvement with the Capitals first emerged after a PTI report claimed that the former India all-rounder was all set to take over as the team’s new batting coach.

During the trials, Yuvraj was seen standing behind the umpire, observing the batters and assessing their performances.

Yuvraj, who was named India’s Player of the Tournament at both the 2007 T20 World Cup and the 2011 ODI World Cup, would add a wealth of experience to a batting unit that has struggled for consistency in recent seasons.

“There will be a complete overhaul of the coaching staff in Delhi Capitals as JSW will be running the management for the 2027-28 seasons as per the agreement. The trio comprising Venugopal Rao, Hemang Badani and Munaf Patel, who were appointed by co-owners GMR, will make way for new support staff,” a source said while speaking to PTI.

Under the co-ownership agreement, GMR and JSW alternate responsibility for managing the men’s team in two-year cycles. During the Bengaluru trials, Ganguly was spotted alongside another new member of the coaching staff as well, former India spinner Amit Mishra.
