IPL 2023 Trading Window: Delhi Capitals (DC) retained, released, Traded Players List, Squad.

The bells for the Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) have started to ring as we are inching close to the auction process. There has been constant chatter amongst the fans across different social media platforms about the possible player retention and release in each franchise. In this article, we will discuss Delhi Capitals (DC) retained, released, and traded player list and squad ahead of the IPL 2023.

Delhi Capitals (DC) was one franchise whose graph spiked in the last few years. Their on-field brilliance to tackle any situation backed by a solid support staff and off-field homework put them in the line to become the next possible champions of the Indian Premier League. In fact, the franchise managed to reach playoffs in the last three seasons, before 2022, which clearly indicates how formidable they were.

However, things changed in the last season of the tournament. Despite bagging a bag full of high-profile players, DC couldn’t rewrite its good fortune and failed in the league stages. The franchise had all the skills it required in its arsenal but lacked a backup plan for some unforeseen circumstances.

The Delhi-based franchise actively participated in the mega-auctions and played smart moves to build its core, however, missed by a massive distance to buy cover players, who have the equal skill sets as of the core players. This flaw in their strategy came to light when some of the players hit their low phases and couldn’t perform at their best, and Delhi had no substitute player who could don the shoes.

Rishabh Pant and Co at the end found themselves hanging at the fifth position in the points table after 14 league stage matches, of which they managed to win seven.

Nevertheless, this isn’t the end of the world for anybody. The next edition of the tournament will bring several new opportunities for every franchisee to correct mistakes and start afresh.

Delhi Capitals (DC) will once again be at the auction process ahead of the IPL 2023. While the franchise will retain most of its players, there will be some players who will be removed for their poor performance.
