Delhi Capitals walked away with the biggest purse remaining as they had INR 9.9 crore still left but added a few good players in the budget at the IPL 2024 auction. Uncapped wicketkeeper batter Kumar Kushagra was DC's biggest purchase as they got the likes of Harry Brook and Tristan Stubbs cheaply.

Delhi Capitals admittedly didn't have great auctions in the last couple of years but the 2020 finalists with their skipper Rishabh Pant on the table did a good job this time around as they got value-for-money players on Tuesday, December 19 at the Coca-Cola arena in Dubai. The day started for the Capitals with a quiet but important purchase of Harry Brook in the very first set. Brook will strengthen the middle order for the Capitals which was an issue for the side throughout IPL 2023.

In one of the steals of the day and a very important pick, Delhi landed South Africa wicketkeeper batter Tristan Stubbs at his base price. Stubbs is a middle-order hard-hitter, who can keep and even bowl part-time off-spin as well. After which Delhi added a couple of local wicketkeeper batters in form of Ricky Bhui and Kumar Kushagra, who ended up being their biggest buy. Delhi spent INR 7.2 crore on the Jharkhand keeper. Delhi added another local pacer in Rasikh Salam of Jammu and Kashmir.

Jhye Richardson and West Indies ODI skipper Shai Hope completed Delhi's squad. With the top-order being settled, Delhi needed to strengthen their middle and lower middle order with backups in the pace department and they plugged all the holes. Will this squad be able to deliver now?
