Delhi Capitals on Saturday unveiled their new jersey for the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League. The franchise invited a select number of fans to the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi – the team's home ground – and handed them the jerseys as a “surprise activity” curated for the fans, according to a statement on their official website.

The shade of the DC jersey remains a combination of red and blue. “While the red symbolises the team’s on-field courage, the blue stands for balance and composure. The tiger, an intrinsic part of the DC logo, is bigger and bolder, as the team gears up to roar again!” the release from the Delhi Capitals read.

The side took to its official Twitter account to unveil the jersey. “Presenting the new threads we'll flaunt in #IPL2022,” wrote the DC, as they shared the jersey.

Commenting on the development, the franchise's interim CEO Vinod Bisht said, "It’s a new cycle of the IPL, and we can’t wait to see our players in this brand new jersey. Supporting this team in its quest for glory is our fan army, so it’s only fitting for us to make them a part of our journey in every step.”

Eight of their picks came on the opening day when they went after Australia's David Warner and Mitchell Marsh, Indian pacer Shardul Thakur and leg-spinner Kuldeep Yadav. The remaining 12 picks came on Sunday where the most notable acquisitions were India's U19 World Cup captain Yash Dhull and his teammate Vicky Ostwal, at his base price of INR 50 lakh, West Indies all-rounder Rovman Powell and South African pacer Lungi Ngidi.

Delhi Capitals will kick-start their season on the 27th of March against Mumbai Indians at the Brabourne Stadium.
