#1 Sam Curran

Sam Curran, one of the most exciting young talents in English cricket, could be a good replacement for Trent Boult considering his ability to swing the ball. The left-arm seamer might not be the fastest bowler on the pitch, but he has good control over his line and length. A bowling all-rounder, Curran can play some big knocks with the bat as well.
The 21-year-old made his international debut last year, playing his first Test match against Pakistan. Curran eventually made his ODI and T20 debuts for England in the same year.
He captured the attention of the cricket world by delivering an eye-catching performance against India last year. Taking 11 wickets and scoring 272 runs, Curran was adjusted Man of the Series against India.
After making a reputation for himself in international cricket, Curran was bought by Kings XI Punjab last season. The youngster did a fair bit of justice to his big price tag, taking 10 wickets in 9 matches, including a hat-trick.
But the Punjab franchise recently released Curran, and Delhi Capitals will get a chance to buy the talented English player at the upcoming auction.
