IPL 2020 Auction: 3 players Delhi Capitals may look to buyback from their released list

#2 Colin Munro

Colin Munro

The 32-year-old explosive left-handed opening batsman from New Zealand, Colin Munro failed to make an impact for Delhi Capitals in 2019, after being retained by the franchise despite an average performance in 2018. While Munro managed only 63 runs from five matches in 2018, he could score only 84 from four games in 2019 edition.

Looking at the figures one could absolutely understand why Delhi released Munro. However, taking a look at his current form, and his overall pedigree as a T20 cricketer, the franchise might be tempted to give the aggressive batsman another chance. After smashing 46 from 21 against England in the 5th T20I last month, he has notched up scores of 119 from 87 and 167 from 94 for Auckland in the 50-over Ford Trophy.

There has never been any doubt about Munro’s ability -- 5662 runs in 237 T20s at a strike rate of 145.55 speak for itself.
