Delhi Capitals captain David Warner was thrilled as he revealed on Friday, April 21 that the stolen bats and kit bags were recovered and handed back to the team. Several bats and items from the kit bag, including shoes, gloves and pads, were stolen during transit as the team was returning to Delhi ahead of their 6th game of the season against Punjab Kings on Sunday.

Two bats from captain David Warner, two from Mitchell Marsh, three from Phil Salt, and five from Yash Dhull were among the ones that went missing. Notably,Delhi Capitals had hired a private logistical company to deliver their kit bags at the team hotels after they travel from one venue to other.

David Warner took to social media to



share a photo of the bats that were found. The Delhi Capitals captain confirmed that a few of them were still not found.

Notably, the Delhi Capitals team management filed a police complaint and informed the airport authorities about the missing bats on Sunday. Delhi had a 4-day break between their April 15 game in Bengaluru and their home game against Kolkata Knight Riders.

Delhi opened their account in the points table, successfully chasing down 128 in a low-scoring thriller.
