IPL 2023: Best starting XI of DC after mini auction
DC bought Rilee Rossouw, Phil Salt, Manish Pandey, Ishant Sharma and Mukesh Kumar at the IPL 2023 auction.
2. Prithvi Shaw
Prithvi Shaw is a no-nonsense cricketer and takes the attack to the opposition right from the get-go. The 23-year-old has demolished top-quality bowling line-ups with his stroke play in the lucrative T20 tournament. He has featured in 63 matches for Delhi Capitals and smashed 1588 runs at a strike rate of 147.75.
In the last season, the ace batter provided his team with brisk starts on a consistent basis and hammered 283 runs in 10 games at a strike rate of 152.97. Given Shaw was going all guns blazing at one end, it allowed Warner to take his time and settle down. One could see the opening duo complementing each other again in the 16th IPL edition.
The 23-year-old has been in a rich vein of form of late and smashed 332 runs in 10 games played in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2022 at a staggering strike rate of 181.42. Shaw would be itching to replicate the same for the Delhi franchise in the upcoming IPL season.
