Team India stars Prithvi Shaw, Shardul Thakur and Kuldeep Yadav have joined Delhi Capitals for their pre-season camp ahead of the upcoming 15th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2022). The franchise took to their social media accounts earlier today to confirm the arrival of the three players at the Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai.
DC posted:

Prithvi Shaw (₹7.5 crore) was one of the four players retained by the franchise ahead of the IPL 2022 mega auction. On the other hand, they acquired the services of Shardul Thakur (₹10.75 crore) and Kuldeep Yadav (₹2 crore) at last month's auction.
Delhi are scheduled to open their campaign on March 27, with a clash against Mumbai Indians at the Brabourne – CCI Stadium. Rishabh Pant will lead the side this year.
