Indian International Cricketer, Gautam Gambhir who plays domestic cricket for Delhi is now replaced by the young wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant for the captaincy of Delhi One team.

The information was conveyed that the chairman of selection committee Atul Wasan personally spoke to Gambhir to inform him about the decision.

"Frankly Vijay Hazare is the last tournament of the season and this was an ideal opportunity for us to see who is the best candidate to lead the state side. We were not finding anyone all these years who could replace Gautam," Delhi selector told.

"The Hazare Trophy gives us the opportunity to test Rishabh' s captaincy skills and with Gautam and other seniors around, he will get ample guidance from Gautam. Obviously, Atul has spoken to Gautam and he has been taken into confidence," Chopra added further.
