IPL 2026: Will Jacks to Leave Mumbai Indians? Delhi Capitals in High-Stakes Trade Talks – Report

Delhi Capitals are reportedly interested in trading for Mumbai Indians’ star all-rounder Will Jacks ahead of IPL 2026. The Englishman, who made headlines in IPL 2025 could be on the move after just one season with the five-time champions.

As per sources, DC are keen on adding Jacks to strengthen their top-order and bring in a batting all-rounder who can also offer part-time spin. The talks are at an early stage but gaining momentum as franchises begin shaping their squads post-IPL 2025.

Jacks was picked up by MI for ₹5.25 crore at the IPL 2025 auction. While he had impactful performances, his place in the XI wasn’t always guaranteed, which led to speculation over his long-term future with the team.

For Delhi, the move makes sense. After a lukewarm season, they are looking to rejig their overseas core. Jacks’ aggressive top-order hitting and off-spin make him an ideal fit at venues like Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium.

No player swap or financial terms have been disclosed yet. Mumbai Indians have not issued any comment on the trade talks. If completed, this could become one of the biggest trades of the IPL 2026 window.
