The 14th season of the Indian Premier League begins on April 9. All teams are busy finalizing their preparations. The Delhi Capitals have been very strong in the paper this time and the team has added good players to the auction. Delhi is balanced by the presence of players like Steve Smith, Umesh Yadav, Sam Billings, Tom Karan. However, the departure of captain Shreyas Iyer before the start of the season was a big setback for the team.
There is nothing special about Delhi’s overall performance in the IPL
The Delhi Capitals’ overall record in the IPL is not good. After making the semifinals in 2009, Delhi went to the playoffs in 2019. The IPL team was very special in 2020 but lost in the final. The Delhi team has not been able to name the IPL trophy even once in 13 matches played so far. With the presence of star players in IPL 2021, the team will definitely want to win the IPL title.
Last season was fantastic
IPL 2020 is good for Delhi Capitals. Under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer, the team secured a place in the final for the first time in the history of IPL, but abandoned their dream of winning the Mumbai Indians’ first title. The Delhi team finished in the playoffs by finishing second in the point table. In the first qualifier, the team lost to Mumbai by 57 runs. The team then defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad in the second qualifier and won the final ticket. While the Delhi fast bowlers have performed well in recent years, Marcus Stonis made his mark with the bat and delivery.
It is possible to play Eleven in Delhi– Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shah, Steve Smith, Ajinkya Rahane, Rishabh Pant, Marcus Stoinis, R Ashwin, Kagiso Rabada, Enriz Nortje, Umesh Yadav / Ishant Sharma, Amit Mishra.
