India, April 7 -- Delhi Capitals (DC) have a big problem ahead of them in IPL 2026 as their top pacer, Mitchell Starc, has been officially ruled out for the first half of the tournament. Starc, who is presently dealing with shoulder and elbow problems, is doing rehab in Australia and is predicted to be out of the team until at least time of April 20, 2026.

Axar Patel will captain the Capitals as the team tries to keep up their performance, but the absence of their leading bowler results in a very important gap in the bowling department. While the team awaits his recovery, three elite unsold international pacers-Gus Atkinson, Jason Behrendorff, and Fazalhaq Farooqi-stand out as the most logical options to bolster the attack.
