IPL Auction 2019: 3 teams who could buy Joe Root

#2 Delhi Daredevils

Delhi Daredevils are the most underperforming team in the history of IPL.

Another team who has never tasted IPL glory, Delhi Daredevils had a great side on paper last season. With the likes Roy, Munro, Maxwell, Morris, Boult, and Rabada in the squad, Delhi had the best set of overseas players last season. But, like always their big guns didn't fire and Rishabh Pant and Boult were the only two shining stars in the dark sky for DD as they finished at the bottom of the points table.

To change their fortunes in the upcoming season Delhi released some big names like Maxwell, Roy, Gambhir along with 8 other players. They also traded Nadeem, Vijay Shankar and Abhishek Sharma for Shikhar Dhawan with SRH.

After releasing Maxwell from the squad, Delhi would look a solid overseas middle-order batsman who can hold the innings together. Moreover, Root's experience would do a ton of good for Delhi who are basically a very young and inexperienced side.
