Ignored For IPL 2025, India U-19 World Cup Winning Team Captain Scores 56-Ball Century
Last Updated: The former India U-19 World Cup winning team captain hammered 8 fours and 7 sixes during his stay at the crease on Sunday and helped his team win the match by 8 wickets. Former India U-19 World Cup-winning team captain Yash Dhull, who went unsold in the IPL 2025 mega auction last year, scored a century in just 56 balls on Sunday (August 3). In the second match of the Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2025, the 22-year-old right-handed batter from Delhi opened the innings for the Central Delhi Kings in the 175-run chase against the North Delhi Strikers at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi and hammered eight fours and seven sixes during his stay at the crease. He added 16 runs in 1.2 overs for the first wicket with wicketkeeper Siddharth Joon (14 runs from six balls), 82 runs in 9.2 overs for the second wicket with Yugal Saini (36 runs from 24 balls), and an unbeaten 79 runs for the third wicket with captain Jonty Sidhu (23 not out from 19 balls) to help his side secure a big win by 8 wickets. #DPL #DPL2025 #DelhiPremierLeague2025 — Delhi Premier League T20 (@DelhiPLT20) August 3, 2025 Dhull, who has served as captain of Delhi in the Ranji Trophy in the past, was the captain of the India U-19 team that won the title in 2022. He made his IPL debut for Delhi Capitals in 2023 but could only manage to score 16 runs in four matches. Dhull was part of DC in the IPL from 2022 to 2024 but didn't play any games in the world's richest franchise cricket league last year (2024). He was released by the Delhi-based franchise ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction in November 2024, and he entered the auction in Saudi Arabia with a base price of Rs 30 lakh. But surprisingly, he was ignored by all 10 IPL franchises and went unsold. 2018 India U-19 World Cup winning team captain Prithvi Shaw was also released by Delhi Capitals ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction, and like Dhull, he also went unsold in the mega auction. There were reports of Shaw joining Chennai Super Kings as an injury replacement for Ruturaj Gaikwad, but instead of Shaw, who has 1892 runs to his credit in 79 IPL matches, CSK signed 18-year-old Mumbai batter Ayush Mhatre. Mhatre was 17 years old when he made his IPL debut for CSK against the Mumbai Indians under MS Dhoni's leadership at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on April 20, 2025. The right-handed batter played seven games for the five-time champions in his first-ever IPL season and amassed a total of 240 runs. Get latest Cricket news, live score and match results on News18.
