New Delhi: Australia seamer Mitchell Starc will not be returning for the remainder of Indian Premier League 2025 and it's reliably understood that he has had a word with Delhi Capitals (DC) management regarding the same. There was a lot of suspense around the left-armer's availability after the tournament was suspended due to the cross-border tensions but DC are now preparing for life without Starc.
