(Cricket News) The Delhi Capitals (DC) completed nine additions to their squad ahead of the upcoming edition of the tournament with the IPL 2024 auction held at the Coca Cola Arena in Dubai. The team’s most significant acquisition was the young wicket-keeper batter Kumar Kushagra, who was signed for a price of Rs. 7.20 lakh.
Harry Brook, an explosive English batsman, and Jhye Richardson, an Australian, also joined the team. Brook is expected to contribute immediately to the team, while Richardson will probably serve as Anrich Nortje’s backup.
The availability of captain Rishab Pant, who is anticipated to recuperate in time for the upcoming season, will be crucial for DC, and Kushagra’s signing could serve as a backup plan in the worst-case situation.
