Batsmen such as Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant form a strong Indian core that DC could build upon. Due to this, management will be afforded the luxury of slotting in foreigners like Shimron Hetmyer and Marcus Stoinis at any position in the batting line-up, keeping in mind the situation at hand.

Dahiya also spoke about the fast bowling depth that DC possesses. South African youngster Kagiso Rabada and the experienced Ishant Sharma, who performed well in the IPL last season, could form a formidable new ball partnership for the team.

The Delhi Capitals had an impressive IPL 2019 where they finished third and showed a lot of promise, and Dahiya is hopeful that they will be able to show similar form this time around too.

While the auction buys were made keeping in mind the conditions in India, Dahiya believes that DC’s quality of spinners, which include the likes of Ravichandran Ashwin and Amit Mishra, will enjoy bowling in the UAE.

DC begin their IPL 2020 campaign against the Kings XI Punjab on 20th September.
