#2 Delhi Capitals - Ishant Sharma

The Delhi franchise has gone through another revamp with a new name in Delhi Capitals and made numerous changes in the auction table as well. Indian fast bowler Ishant Sharma was one such purchase. But it is unlikely that he will get a single game, as Delhi's pace battery already has some of the biggest names in their XI.
New Zealand's pace sensation Trent Boult will be leading the bowling attack, as he is available for the entire duration of the tournament. His will be joined by Kagiso Rabada whose combination will be lethal. They also have the services of Chris Morris, whom they retained before the 2018 auctions.
Although Delhi finished at the bottom of the table, they created huge setbacks at the end of the season as they knocked Mumbai Indians out of the tournament. With youngsters in Avesh Khan & Harshal Patel providing excellent T20 skills, it might be hard for Ishant to stake a claim in the playing XI.
