Delhi Eaglets Cricket Club is a cricket club based in Talkatora Stadium, New Delhi.

One of its members, Dilbagh Singh, played for Delhi Eaglets (Delhi Gymkhana) in the local league for nearly 44 years. He stopped playing only about 7-8 years back, but he one cannot miss his presence at some DDCA game or the other which the officials play. Dilbagh played in A1 division since 1950 and was a regular member in All India Ministry Tournaments from 1964 to 1974. He played a lone Ranji match for Jammu and Kashmir in 1964. Several cricketers from his club have turned out for the Services, Railways, Delhi and Punjab. His son, Bantoo Singh, who played for Delhi for about seven years, was among the prominent club members to have played first-class cricket.
