IPL 2020: Delhi Capitals SWOT analysis
Earlier known as the Delhi Daredevils, the franchise was renamed to Delhi Capitals (DC) last season. Shreyas Iyer had shown promise in the 2018 IPL season for the Delhi-based franchise and was successful in taking the team to the play-offs the next season. The Capitals entered the play-offs after seven years, and ended up as second runners up in the playoffs.
With some valuable additions to the side, the Capitals on paper look as formidable a side as any. But can they get consistency out of the likes of Rishabh Pant, who off late has been struggling for form? Can they get on a run of winning matches to not only make it to the play-offs this time but to go one step further and win their maiden IPL title?
The Delhi Capitals play their home matches in the newly named Arun Jaitley Stadium, while they also have the modern Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium, Raipur as their second home ground.
Let's have an in-depth look into their squad.
