Delhi Capitals Playing XI IPL 2024 : Delhi Capitals team is ready for the next season of IPL. This time the good thing for the team is that Rishabh Pant has returned and that too as captain. He will be seen playing after missing a season. Although the last two seasons were very bad for the team, the team will try to do something with a new team and new players which has not been done till now. That means capturing the Indian Premier League title for the first time. Meanwhile, the question is that after the arrival of Rishabh Pant, how can the playing eleven of the team be in the first match, let’s talk about it.
Delhi team had reached the final in the year 2020
Delhi Capitals team went to the finals of IPL in the year 2020. The team was very close to winning the title for the first time, but the Mumbai Indians team captained by Rohit Sharma did not let its dream come true. Then Shreyas Iyer was the captain of the team. However, since then there have been many changes in the team. Now Rishabh Pant is the captain of the team. Under his captaincy, when the team entered the 2022 IPL, the team stood fifth out of ten. Pant missed the last season and David Warner was made the new captain in his place. That year the team stood ninth. That means the team’s performance was very poor.
This time these new players in the team
This time, the new players who will be seen playing in the team include Tristan Stubbs, Kumar Kushagra, Jhay Richardson, Jake Fraser McGurk. Although Lungi Ngidi was earlier in the team, Lungi is now out, while Jake Fraser McGurk has entered. This time Riley Rousseau, Chetan Sakariya, Rovman Powell, Manish Pandey, Phil Salt, Mustafizur Rahman and Sarfaraz Khan are not with the team. After being released, most of the players will be seen in other teams this time.

Harry Brook put the team in trouble
The team was in tension when the player whom Delhi Capitals had bought at a hefty price in last year’s auction, refused to come. We are talking about Harry Brook. However, it will be interesting to see how the team will compensate for his shortcomings. Lungi Ngidi has already gone out, and the picture regarding Enrique Norkhia is also not clear yet. It is believed that he will miss the first few matches. It is possible that some updates will be received soon regarding when they will arrive and whether they will arrive at all.
It is possible that DC’s playing eleven in the first match
Now let us understand how the team’s playing eleven could be in the first match against Punjab Kings. The team has a strong opening batsman in the form of David Warner, so there is no need to think too much about it. Prithvi Shaw is also in the team. What Shaw can do is not hidden from anyone. But he has not been in form for some time, this could be a cause for concern. Mitchell Marsh can be seen at number three, while captain Rishabh Pant will come to bat at number four. The first few matches will be very important for Pant as to how he performs. The future story of Delhi will be clear from how his fitness is. Tristan Stubbs and Kumar Kushagra can also get a place in the team as wicket-keeper batsmen. At the same time, the team has two bowlers in the form of Akshar Patel and Lalit Yadav, who can also bowl. Kuldeep Yadav and Mukesh Kumar are also almost certain to play. Foreign fast bowler could be Jhye Richardson.
Probable playing eleven of Delhi Capitals: Prithvi Shaw, David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant (captain), Tristan Stubbs (wicketkeeper), Kumar Kushagra, Axar Patel, Lalit Yadav, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Jhay Richardson.
Impact Player: Khalil Ahmed, Prithvi Shaw
Delhi Capitals full squad for IPL 2024: Rishabh Pant (captain), David Warner, Prithvi Shaw, Yash Dhull, Abhishek Porel, Axar Patel, Lalit Yadav, Mitchell Marsh, Praveen Dubey, Vicky Ostwal, Enrique Norkhia, Kuldeep Yadav, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Khaleel Ahmed, Ishant Sharma, Mukesh Kumar, Tristan Stubbs, Ricky Bhui, Kumar Kushagra, Rasikh Dar, Jhay Richardson, Sumit Kumar, Swastik Chikara, Shai Hope.
