After a successful first few years of the Indian Premier League during which they made it to the playoffs a couple of times, Delhi’s form kind of fizzled off in the years that followed. However, they turned their fortunes around last season once again as they made it to the playoffs after a long wait. A lot of players impressed during their successful stint in 2019 and hence, we take a look at three of those players who could be expected to perform well in the 2020 edition of the tournament as well.
Rishabh Pant: He has been under pressure at the international stage due to his inconsistent performances in recent times but Pant is a different beast in the Indian Premier League. He was the highest run-getter for Delhi, and also the second highest run-getter overall, during the 2018 edition of the tournament. Pant amassed 684 runs during that edition at an average of 52.61 and followed that up with a total of 488 runs in 2019 at 37.53. His strike-rates of 173.60 and 162.66 during both of these seasons respectively were fabulous as well. Hence, he would be eager to repeat his heroics in this season as well.
