The Test, Amazon Prime Video's latest docu-series which features Australian cricket's journey from the lows of the Newlands ball-tampering scandal in 2018 to the highs of the Ashes win in 2019, was recently released. Delhi Capitals star Marcus Stoinis, who featured in Australia's five-match ODI tour to India in 2019, praised the Indian cricket culture and said that the team's energy is unmatched. In a brutally honest assessment, Stoinis added that many players who are not featuring in the Indian team were more talented than him.

Delhi Capitals snapped up Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis for a whopping ₹4.8 crore. Stoinis has had a sub-par IPL career so far, with stints at Kings XI Punjab and Royal Challengers Bangalore. However, Delhi Capitals would hope that the hard-hitting all-rounder can repeat some of his BBL 2019-20 heroics where Stoinis finished as the highest run-getter of the tournament. In 17 innings, Marcus Stoinis scored 705 runs, the most in a BBL season, helping Melbourne Stars reach the final of the tournament.
