Duleep Trophy 2024 Team D SWOT Analysis

If we analyze the Team D squad in the Duleep Trophy 2024, they have a strong skipper in the form of Shreyas Iyer. He is a regular member of the Test team and also showed amazing captaincy in IPL 2024 by leading Kolkata Knight Riders to the title.

Devdutt Padikkal is another powerful top-order batsman for the side. Axar Patel is a dominant all-rounder while Ishan Kishan and Srikar Bharat are national level-skippers. In the bowling department, Arshdeep Singh and Tushar Deshpande are two strong names in their squad.

While Arshdeep Singh is a regular member of the India T20 side and has also cemented his place in the ODI team, Tushar Deshpande has been an impressive CSK pacer for the last few seasons in the Indian Premier League.

Harshit Rana was an emerging pacer in IPL 2024 and played a key role in leading KKR to the trophy.

Hence, we can conclude that Team D has a few big names in each department like top order, middle-order, wicketkeeper, and pacers, and a combined squad. However, all these big players need to perform if Team D wants to win the title.
