In an unexpected turn of events, Ricky Ponting has been removed as the head coach of Delhi Capitals, according to the Times of India on Saturday, July 13. 

However, contrary to reports, Ricky Ponting’s tenure as the head coach of Delhi Capitals came to an end, and it appears the franchise may not be interested in renewing his contract.

The former Australian captain took the role of head coach of Delhi Capitals back in 2018, and since then he has been coaching the team for an uninterrupted seven-year tenure. 

There hasn’t been an official announcement from the franchise so far. If they choose to renew his tenure, it will be revealed in the next few days. 

Throughout IPL history, Delhi Capitals have not managed to win the trophy. In the 2024 season, they had a rough start but showed remarkable improvement in the latter half, though they still missed out on the semi-finals. 

What’s Next for Ricky Ponting? 

It’s worth mentioning that Ricky Ponting was approached to coach Team India following the conclusion of Rahul Dravid’s tenure, but he expressed no interest, considering it a huge responsibility. 

Considering Ricky Ponting’s status as the most successful captain in Australian cricket and one of the sharpest minds in world cricket, it will be intriguing to see which teams pursue him or whether Delhi Capitals will opt not to renew his contract.
