Delhi Capitals had a disappointing campaign in IPL 2023 as their team was entirely dependent on players like David Warner and Axar Patel to perform in that season. Rishabh Pant’s return in IPL 2024 could help their side to build on him heavily but still, they would look to target a few more middle-order batters in their side as batting lacks depth unfortunately.
Here, in this article, we will have a look at three players Delhi Capitals can target in IPL 2024 auctions.
1. Daryl Mitchell:
Daryl Mitchell has been phenomenal for New Zealand in the 2023 World Cup as a middle-order batsman as he scored 552 runs from 9 innings at a batting average of 69. He could be an asset for this franchise to play well in the middle overs against the spin bowlers. He was seen smashing two centuries against India in the recently concluded ODI World Cup.

2. Bipin Saurabh:
The domestic talent from Bihar had an incredible season with the bat in SMAT 2023 by scoring 420 runs from 7 innings at the top order. He has been a designated wicket-keeper batsman, hence he could also definitely serve as backup for the Delhi skipper Rishabh Pant.
In case if Pant isn’t able to do keeping due to fitness issues then he can be considered for the wicket-keeping option.

3. Shahrukh Khan:
The Tamil Nadu’s talented hard hitting batter Shahrukh Khan will be huge demand in IPL. Shahrukh Khan’s ability to smash huge sixes in death overs will definitely help him to get a higher bid in this auction and he can also fill the middle-order batting spot for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2024.
He was also the highest wicket-taker in TNPL 2023, hence he could be counted as a part-time bowling option too for DC.
