IPL 2023 Auction: Injury-prone Chris Woakes misses second consecutive IPL, says ‘It wasn’t easy decision but had to do it for Tests’

IPL 2023 Auction: Areas to be targeted by Delhi Capitals

Backup Wicketkeeper

After releasing Tim Seifert and KS Bharat ahead of the IPL 2023 auction, the Capitals will be targeting an attacking wicketkeeper batsman to back up Rishabh Pant. Due to limited purse amount left the franchise could look for a domestic player as Pant’s backup.

Spin bowler and bowling allrounder

Kuldeep Yadav had a great IPL 2022 season, but there will be questions about him consistently delivering similar performance like he did last season. The Capitals will be targeting a spin bowler who can get them wickets even if Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav have a day to forget. Having traded Shardul Thakur to KKR, DC also needs a reliable bowling all-rounder and for that they would place their chip on domestic players. Another factor the team needs to address is enough cover for the season if ther is any injury to the player.

Players likely to be targeted by Delhi Capitals during the auction

Adil Rashid

Insidesport

The England leg spinner has made himself available for this years auction. Rashid had a great year winning T20 World Cup with England where he put amazing performance. With Delhi Capitals not having leg spinner in the squad, he could be a welcome addition to the setup.

Rilee Rossouw

Insidesport

Given Mitchell Marsh’s injury record, the Capitals will look for a player who can stay fit for the season and can also get runs on consistent basis. South Africa’s Rilee Rossow will be a good option to bank on looking by his recent form. He became the first South African player to hit a century in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. He will be a great addition to the Delhi Capitals squad and his experience complement captain Rishabh Pant in the middle order.

Phil Salt

England Salt was in sublime form in domestic cricket earlier this year. He slammed 390 runs in 14 innings of the T20 Blast for Sussex. Then, the top-order batter hit 353 runs for Manchester Originals and emerged as the second-highest run-scorer in the Hundred. He would be a great backup for Rishabh Pant in the wicketkeeping department.
