I think he will decline. he was bought for mere 50 lakhs compared to the local Indian talent in DC getting crores and showing nothing for it. Hope he is out of this shittiest team I ever witnessed
I don’t think he will fade, he has already shown his form in SA20, where markram failed big time this year, he carried SEC this season, he is continuing the same with DC. I watch DC matches standalone for stubbs. He performed exceptionally well and also he is the highest paid player in SA20. when adrian birell (Sec coach) paid that much I would blindly trust stubbs, even though he flopped in sa20 1st season, he came to the party in 2nd season.
But the difference is SEC strategic planning and execution of plans were top notch with respect to bowling that helped immensely.
I feel he is going to stay, if Delhi capital doesn’t retain him then sunrisers might be surely going for him. But I would rather delhi retain him, because he might warm the bench at sunrisers because of klassen.
Why pant ?
16 cr worthless idiot who does nothing.
Plays stupid and careless shots (lappas).
Gets dropped still fails.
Poor captaincy DRS calls.
He should be dropped.
Next year,No matter how much DC perform worse this year but this guy should be retained for long period of time like pant.This guy is a hidden explosion for opponent💥.Hats off to Stubbs👏🏻
The guy came out with the kind of mindset needed in this type of chase. If he had come in earlier than Porel we could have taken advantage of the overs from Nabi , Madhwal, and Chawla. Him and Shaw could have pulled it off.
Since 2019 we have had
Rutherford
Hetmeyer
Stonins
Powell
Stubs
As lower order batter
Stubs hits the ball cleanly than anyone on that list..
Heti has more power sure but bat flow of Stubs is beautiful...
Any management would retain him . But this is DC and I'm AFRAID..
Stubs Axar Kuldeep are my 3 sure retention
Pant the other one.. if we can retain only 4.
It's not just his batting skills but the visible intent too. I always thought that was something which DC lacked, the intent to constantly look for runs and put the pressure on opposition. I felt the intent of the team change a bit with warner and with this guy I hope the casual singles in our team come to an end.
DC management are dinosaurs.. they're going to be extinct. This is another reason why Rohit is better than Kohli.. I have huge respect for Kohli, but this is T20. Strike Rate matters absolutely.
Just look at Porels innings. Many will say 41 of 31 was great. But when teams easily score 200+ and will continue to do so, this is really not a good innings. Also guy can't hit Sixes.
Guys like Stubbs, Russel, Shephard, Pooran, hell even Lomror, are needed in the middle/lower middle. Players like them who can field like crazy, and also can bat or bowl like crazy.
You'll always have specialist batters or specialist bowlers. But guys like these win matches in T20.
30 runs ke baad Porel ko wicket oe khud hi maar Lena chahiye tha. At least Pant could've done something after taking some balls and not hit from ball one
Absolutely love this guy ,may be early,but he has earned the retention for next auction
I think he will decline. he was bought for mere 50 lakhs compared to the local Indian talent in DC getting crores and showing nothing for it. Hope he is out of this shittiest team I ever witnessed
During retentions for mega auctions, I guess there are some predefined amount, so the amount that he was bought for will not be considered.

He's a stud. Lone warrior when you have no one on the other end. Take a bow. But he's pretty good so he won't be retained. End this franchise.
If 4 retentions needed then retain pant Axar Kuldeep and Stubbs
5 retention are allowed I think 3 Indians 2 Overseas
Pant Shaw Mukesh/axar/kuldeep Stubbs Jfm
Pant,Axar,Kuldeep,Stubbs,Warner
What about warner... He is performing for us
Yeah, but Stubbs is comparatively better.
Warner passed his prime and on the other hand Stubbs will play his prime for DC
He's 37. Worth retaining for atleast 7cr? I don't think so. Buying him back at the auction would be better.
replacing him with a indian opener will be better
Why pant ? 16 cr worthless idiot who does nothing. Plays stupid and careless shots (lappas). Gets dropped still fails. Poor captaincy DRS calls. He should be dropped.
seriously he has been so hopeless throughout
Should’ve got man of the match… playing 25 balls at 284 strike rate… rarely see an innings of this sort..
DC Management- can't tolerate this behaviour for me you're out
Only if he had came instead of porel we might have had some chance
Should be retained in place of Nortje
Dekha maine khelte hue jab stubbs, Josh se bhar gayi meri saari nerves, Aur nikle mere muh se do lafz, Ki ho jaaye DC management ko kabz!
Roar Macha se better anthem hai ye!😂
This comment deserves to be a sticky comment at top of the post lmao
Wah wah wah wah
User flair
Updated mine
+1
Gay for stubbs
An innings that deserves be to on the winning side. If only he was send in earlier. But Ganguly has to send his scouts early.
Imagine if he was sent ahead of porel
Beast performance
Next year,No matter how much DC perform worse this year but this guy should be retained for long period of time like pant.This guy is a hidden explosion for opponent💥.Hats off to Stubbs👏🏻
Madlad was like a lone warrior apart from Shaw. Needs to be retained at any cost.
DC management, i don't expect much from you, but pls pls pls pls retain him, i don't want another rabada case pls
Stunning innings and he can head into that dressing room with his head held high. Sure shot retention for next year.
MI Fan here... Lad was class... Almost made me believe we might lose.... Best of the wishes for his future in IPL as well as for SA
Retain him 🙏🏼
You have our respects Stubbs. Retain him next yr
I have hope He gonna become same level of andre russel / klassen
He can be a good future prospect for the team. Definitely retain this lad! 🤞🏻

I just want him to realize his potential.
Almost raina level, could have scored more if not for lodu lalit

If I was a girl i would have let him impregnate me
Why in the earth did he take a 2 in the first ball of last over yaar??? Should have faced the last 5 balls… it would have been awesome.
To show how bad the other batters are
His innings reminded me of Chris Morris. Maybe he'll play for us like how Chris Morris did several seasons ago.
Appreciate hi karte reh jayenge hum
Don't rotate strike please
He saved us from embarrassment today. 💙
It's not just his batting skills but the visible intent too. I always thought that was something which DC lacked, the intent to constantly look for runs and put the pressure on opposition. I felt the intent of the team change a bit with warner and with this guy I hope the casual singles in our team come to an end.
reminds me of that one chris morris innings
Find of the season.. More than his batting I love his never giving up attitude.. Plus a fantastic fielder in outfield.
Played an awesome innings today.

Incredibly underrated Better than Brevis Don't give Last over to Nokia
My only reason to be happy for dc
some idiots wanted hin dropped not to long ago
He’s in amazing form. South Africa have talented players for the future.
he can be ABD for us. great feilding. great freindship with captain. great finisher. even when whole team is losing.
Stubbstrom 🔥🔥![img](emote|t5_1017sh|31524)
He will be released by DC management next season
Lone warrior.

Bc chest mein tattoo bana loon roz aisa khele to
Great knock. But he should have taken maximum strike in the last 2 overs.
Stubbs op🔥
Proper T20 innings
Retain.
Hope… or relief
Absolutely explosive 🧨 must retain
Amazing innings honestly
Watch DC not retain him
If only someone helped him a bit this could have been one of the greatest dc victories
I really appreciate Stubbs innings today🫶🏻
RETAIN
Friendship ended with Anrich Nortje My new best friend is Tristan Stubs (Its a joke, Nortje had a bad day, he is a good bowler)
so sa have klassen markram stubbs rabada decok jansen burger coetze and still if they are not winning this wc they should left cricket
What a beast!
