With strategic acquisitions from the auction, DC seem well-prepared to tackle the challenges of the tournament. With Rishabh Pant set to return as the captain, the Capitals will be aiming for their first-ever IPL title in the upcoming edition. On that note, let us take a look at DC probable playing 11 for IPL 2024.
DC have decided to give one more chance to Prithvi Shaw after his dismal IPL 2023 season where he scored 106 runs in eight matches. Shaw can open with Australia’s veteran David Warner. Mitchell Marsh can bat at no. 3 position.
Rishabh Pant, who will return to IPL after his horrific accident, will lead the team and can anchor the innings in the middle order.
Harry Brook, who is a new addition in the team, can also make it to DC playing 11 as a hitter.
Delhi Capitals have two spinning all-rounders Lalit Yadav and Axar Patel, who will provide a needed balance to the team. Kuldeep Yadav would be a permanent member of DC playing 11.
