#2 Delhi Capitals

Changed name will change Delhi's fortunes?

Delhi Capitals has been successful in forming a strong squad for the 12th edition of the IPL. The team got back local boy Shikhar Dhawan in the trade window. The experienced Indian opener is expected to provide the much-needed solidity to the young Delhi Capitals batting line-up.

Captain Shreyas Iyer was in staggering form in the recently concluded Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and would like to carry that form into the IPL as well.

Sandeep Lamichhane will accompany Amit Mishra in the spin department, while Kagiso Rabada and Trent Boult will form a lethal pace attack.

Chris Morris is expected to be part of South Africa's squad against Sri Lanka and thus, he might miss out. Axar Patel is set to make his debut for his new franchise.

Predicted playing XI - Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw, Shreyas Iyer (C), Rishabh Pant (WK), Colin Ingram, Axar Patel, Rahul Tewatia, Kagiso Rabada, Trent Boult, Amit Mishra, Sandeep Lamichhane
