Ajinkya Rahane:

Ajinkya Rahane brings in a lot of experience along with him. He has played a total of 140 games in the tournament so far and has scored close to 4000 runs.

Rahane has represented three different franchises in the IPL so far including Mumbai Indians, Rajasthan Royals, and Rising Pune Supergiants.

Alex Carey:

Australia’s wicketkeeper-batsman Alex Carey is ready to rock and roll in his maiden IPL stint.

He has been a great performer in the Big Bash League. Batting lower down the order, Carey proves to be an explosive power hitter of the ball.

Interestingly, he has also represented the Kangaroos in Football too. This goes on to show how complete an athlete Carey is? Delhi Capitals have bought him for Rs. 2.40 Crores.

Amit Mishra:

The veteran leg-break spinner has been retained by the Delhi Capitals for Rs. 4 Crore. Mishra is a legend of the tournament and is one of the most capped players in the competition.

The senior bowler has clinched over 150 wickets in the competition and seems to get better with age.

He made his IPL debut with the Delhi Daredevils in 2008 and clinched a hat-trick in the maiden season itself.

Avesh Khan:

Avesh Khan made his IPL debut in 2017 with the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). He was bought by the Delhi Daredevils (now Delhi Capitals) in 2018 for Rs. 75 lakh.

Avesh has been retained by the Delhi Capitals for Rs. 70 lakh.

Axar Patel:

The all-rounder has been retained by Delhi Capitals this year for Rs. 5 Crores. He has had a fair share of experience in the IPL. He was rightly named the ‘Emerging Player of the Year’ for IPL 2014 for his performances in 2014 with the Kings XI Punjab.

Chris Woakes:

Woakes had an amazing IPL debut season with the Kolkata Knight Riders in 2017. In 2018, he became RCB’s biggest signing of the season.

India’s tall fast-paced bowler has been retained by the Capitals for this year’s IPL. He has been retained for Rs. 1.10 Crore. He was first bought by the Delhi Capitals for the 2019 season and has been retained for the first time.

The lanky pacer is one of the most experienced lads in the squad and has played close to 90 games. He has clinched 71 wickets in these games which includes a five-for.

Jason Roy:

It was a bizarre decision to include Jason Roy in the squad. Delhi Capitals already had three opening batsmen including Shikhar Dhawan, Ajinkya Rahane, and Prithvi Shaw.

The English opener’s inclusion in the squad was thus questioned. Jason Roy has had a very short IPL experience so far. He made his IPL debut with the Gujarat Lions in 2017.

Yadav is quite an aggressive batsman and has hit six sixes in an over twice in List A cricket. He has been bought by Delhi Capitals for Rs. 20 Lakh.

Marcus Stoinis:

Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis provides a balance to any team that he plays for. He is amazing with the bat and the ball and is a limited-over star.

Prithvi Shaw:

In the 2016 season, Ashwin picked up his 100th wicket in the competition.

Ashwin was bought by Kings XI Punjab in the 2018 IPL Auction for 7.6 crores. He led the Kings XI Punjab in the 2019 season.

Rishabh Pant:

Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant has been in the news since Dhoni’s departure from team India last year. He has been given multiple chances in the Indian team but the young lad has failed to prove his might.

Nowadays, he is warming the bench and looking for a chance to make a comeback in the national side.

Delhi Capitals have retained him for a whopping Rs. 15 Crore and this year’s IPL might just be crucial enough for him to prove his worth and make a comeback in the senior national side.

He has been retained by the Delhi Capitals for Rs. 7 Crore for this year’s IPL.
