The team integrity manager has to be given complete information and picture of the person coming to meet the player. Before the season began, DC had made it compulsory for the players to attend every franchise meeting and function so that players can gel up easily.
Delhi, in the meantime, began their season with five straight losses due to their inability to identify the correct lineup early on, but they recovered brilliantly and have won their past two games to raise some optimism for postseason qualifying. It will be difficult for them to qualify for the playoffs, though, given the NRR is similarly subpar.
Delhi Capitals were adjudged guilty of violating the IPL Code of Conduct following their victory against Hyderabad in their most recent game and have been assessed a sizable fine.
