Rahul was at the top of his game with 616 runs from 15 innings, while Avesh Khan topped the bowling chart with 18 wickets from 13 innings for LSG last season. They have further strengthened their squad with Nicholas Pooran, Daniel Sams, Jayadev Unadkat, Romario Shepherd, and Amit Sharma. 

Delhi Capitals finished the last season in the fifth position in the points table with just seven wins from 14 games. David Warner scored 432 runs from 12 innings and was the only cricketer to score 400-plus runs for the Capitals. Khaleel Ahmed impressed with the ball by taking 16 wickets from just ten innings, and Kuldeep Yadav topped with 21 wickets from 14 innings.

Rishabh Pant is ruled out from the entire season due to injuries that occurred during his car accident in December last year. They have brought in Phil Salt, Rilee Rossouw, Mukesh Kumar, and the experienced duo of Manish Pandey and Ishant Sharma. Salt will likely fight with Sarfaraz Khan for the wicketkeeping gloves, while Mitchell Marsh will probably keep Rilee Rossow on the bench due to restrictions on overseas slots.

Player Picks

9
C

KL Rahul LSG | BAT

KL Rahul has struggled for consistency across formats in international cricket but has impressive numbers in IPL. He was the second-leading run-getter in IPL 2022 with 616 runs from 15 innings with two centuries and four fifties.

9
C

David Warner DC | BAT

The Australian batter was the leading run-getter for Delhi Capitals last season with 432 runs from 12 innings at a strike rate of 150.52 and will be leading the team this season.

8.5
C

Mitchell Marsh DC | ALL

The in-form batting all-rounder won the Player of the Series award in the recent ODI series against India and will be looking to continue the momentum in IPL. Marsh smashed 251 runs from 12 innings and took four wickets from four innings for DC last season.

8

Deepak Hooda LSG | ALL

The star Indian big-hitter struggled for runs during India's latest T20I series against New Zealand but scored 451 runs from 14 innings for Lucknow Super Giants last season and will be looking to pick from where he left.

8.5

Prithvi Shaw DC | BAT

The young Indian opener has been a consistent performer in IPL tournaments. He scored 283 runs from just 10 innings last season and should be in the Dream11 at any cost.

8.5

Nicholas Pooran LSG | WK

The former West Indies skipper struggled for the big knocks for Sunrisers Hyderabad last season but costed Lucknow Super Giants big bucks during the auction. He is in great form across formats lately and can make a big impact this season.

7.5

Rilee Rossouw DC | BAT

The in-form South African batter is likely to get a nod to start the first game with Anrich Nortje not available. Rossouw smashed 42 off 21 in the last T20I against West Indies in his last innings and was sensational in the recent PSL 2023.

7.5

Jaydev Unadkat LSG | BOWL

The experienced pacer is a new signing at LSG and will be leading the pace attack in Mohsin Khan's absence. He enters this IPL with 29 wickets from his last five red-ball matches.

7

Khaleel Ahmed DC | BOWL

The left-arm pacer was the best pace bowler for the Capitals last season. He took 16 wickets from just 10 innings at an economy rate of 8.04 and is available for only 7.0 credits on the Dream11 Team.

DC | BAT

The experienced Indian batter was restricted to just six games for Lucknow Super Giants as he scored just 88 runs from six innings at a strike rate of 110.00.
