Former India selector Kris Srikkanth said Tristan Stubbs is an overrated player after his poor form continued in the IPL 2026. Delhi Capitals completely collapsed after the powerplay in their latest loss to KKR as well. Stubbs once again failed with the bat, scoring just two off four balls before being castled by Anukul Roy as well.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Srikkanth said, “What was this batting from DC? Horrible batting. I keep saying it. Tristan Stubbs is an overrated player. Rizvi played well at the start but should have contributed. For Nitish Rana, it was a crucial game,” said Srikkanth.

“And on a turning and spinning track like this, after winning the toss and batting first, you need to score at least 180. This is not a ground where you can casually think runs will come easily. In all fairness, if someone gets going, they can bat brilliantly here. However, the reality is that their middle order is gone. KL Rahul’s shot was very surprising. That ball completely stopped on him, and it was a very, very poor shot from KL Rahul,” he said.

“And honestly, for that Anukul Roy ball, there was no answer at all from Stubbs. Axar Patel has been a total failure with the bat. Only Ashutosh Sharma somehow kept fighting, scoring 20, 30, 40 runs every game. Poor guy, he is batting really well. That is the only reason they reached this total. Otherwise, they would have been all out for 120 maybe even 110 or 115,” again said Srikkanth.

DC will take on PBKS in their next match in Dharamsala on May 11.
