All-time best XI of Delhi Capitals (DC) in IPL
Some big names in the eleven.
3. Gautam Gambhir
Although predominantly an opener, the Delhi left-hander would have to bat at number 3 to accommodate the dynamic duo of Warner and Sehwag at the top of the order. Gambhir has represented Delhi Capitals in two different stages of his career. He started his IPL journey with his local side in 2008, joined Kolkata Knight Riders for 8 seasons which saw him gain immense success and then returned to Delhi Capitals for a season.
He spent the first three years of IPL with Delhi Capitals. He scored a total of 1200 runs in 48 innings and was vital to Delhi’s fortunes in the first few seasons. He was also the highest run-scorer for the Delhi outfit in the inaugural season of the IPL, scoring 534 runs at an excellent average of 41.07 and an impressive strike rate of 140.89, which included five half centuries.
His return to the capital city in 2018 wasn’t a season to remember. Just like Warner, Gambhir went on to become a household name for another IPL side, but his contribution for Delhi Capitals is noteworthy to the say the least. The two time IPL winning captain will also have the additional responsibility of leading this hypothetical side.
