Iyer, Zaheer Khan, Sam Billings, Sanju Samson, Chris Morris, Carlos Brathwaite,
Karun Nair, Rishabh Pant, CV Milind, Syed Ahmed & Pratyush Singh.
Adding the lights of Srilankan All-arounder
Angelo Mathews for 2 CR and New Zealander Correy Anderson for 1 CR was a good
buy for Delhi adding the balance to the team.

South Africa and Pat Cummins from Australia was bought by 5 CR & 4.5 CR
respectively. Rabada who has been considered as one of the promising stars of
cricket have picked 22 wickets in 16 T20's and Cummins is someone who can clock
153km/hr are the perfect pacers to lead the Delhi bowling attack with Jayant
Yadav and Zaheer Khan.

Aditya Tare (25 Lakhs), Murugan Ashwin (1 Cr), Navdeep Saini (10 lakh),
