Delhi Capitals (DC) opener Shikhar Dhawan is back in the top position on the IPL 2021 Orange Cap leaderboard. The left-handed batter aggregated 24 runs against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) today that took his overall tally to 454 runs.

Dhawan's opening partner Prithvi Shaw missed the Indian Premier League 2021 match against the Kolkata Knight Riders. As a result, he could not improve his position in the standings. But DC skipper Rishabh Pant has broken into the top 10 after scoring 39 runs against KKR.

Pant overtook the likes of Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell and Devdutt Padikkal on the leaderboard. Meanwhile, Rahul Tripathi is now in ninth position with 315 runs, having scored nine runs against DC.
