IPL Auction 2019: Grading all eight teams from their buys 

#3 Delhi Capitals: A-

Colin Ingram

Batsmen

Colin Ingram (6.4 Crores), Hanuma Vihari (2 Crores), Ankush Bains (20 Lakhs)

Ingram had a great 2018 season in the shortest format of the game as he was part of the title-winning Adelaide Strikers in the BBL and APL runners-up Kabul Zwanan where he scored 206 runs in 9 innings. I

In the PSL, he scored 243 runs at an average of 34.71 with a strike rate in the excess of 140. His performance in the APL and PSL on sub-continent pitches prompted DC to shell out big bucks for the South African.

Hanuma Vihari has a career strike rate of 111.12 and isn't a name synonymous with T20 cricket but his presence might provide a calm head in a batting order that has explosive names like Rishabh Pant and Shikhar Dhawan.

All Rounders

Axar Patel (5 Crores), Sherfane Rutherford (2 Crores), Keemo Paul (50 Lakhs), Jalaj Saxena (20 Lakhs)

Axar Patel is one of the brighter young talents in the IPL, a accurate line and length bowler who can clear the ropes when called upon.

Sherfane Rutherford is a hard hitting batsman who was one of the top-10 run scorers in the recently concluded T10 league, scoring 195 runs at a strike rate of 211.95. In the CPL, coming down the order he scored 171 runs at an average of 34.20 with a strike rate of 142.50.

Bowlers

Ishant Sharma (1.1 Crores), Nathu Singh (20 Lakhs), Bandaru Ayappa (20 Lakhs)

Ishant Sharma is quite an intriguing pick by DC given the fact that he last played a T20 in 2017, the Capitals are hoping that bring his test form into the IPL as well.

Nathu Singh was a rage 2 seasons ago when he was picked up by the Mumbai Indians for 3.2 crore but he has faded out of the spotlight since then.
