Kevin Pietersen Joins Delhi Capitals As Mentor For IPL 2025

Former England captain Kevin Pietersen has been appointed as the mentor for the Delhi Capitals ahead of the IPL 2025 season. Pietersen, who previously played for the franchise in 2012 and 2014, expressed his excitement about returning to Delhi, stating he has fond memories of his time with the team. He joins a robust coaching staff that includes head coach Hemang Badani and director of cricket Venugopal Rao. This marks Pietersen's first coaching role in the IPL, transitioning from a career in commentary.
