According to a report in the Indian Express a total of 16 bats, in addition to other equipment like shoes, pads, thigh pads and gloves, were missing. Three of the lost bats belonged to David Warner, two to Mitchell Marsh, three to Phil Salt, and five to Yash Dhull.
The players found out about the missing gear after flying back to Delhi on Sunday and having their kits delivered to their team hotel. Delhi Capitals has hired a logistics company to assist in the transport of kit and equipment from one venue to another during the IPL.
“All of them were shocked when they heard that everyone had lost something or the other from their kit bags,” a Delhi Capitals offical said. “This is the first time such an incident has happened and the matter was soon raised to the logistics department, police and later at the airport. The investigation is on.”
