Axar Patel
An underrated player, Axar Patel's value as an all-rounder has often been sidelined. However, for DC, Patel has displayed brilliant performance match after match. Patel's live-wire fielding adds to this merit, which goes well with his ability to bat at any order.
Kuldeep Yadav
An architect, in the uprise of DC in IPL Kuldeep Yadav, has not only managed to turn the tides of the franchise up but also bring his bowling mojo back. Yadav's handy batting down the order provides substance, which gives the batters license to play. Yadav could lead the bowling pack in the IPL 2025-27 cycle.
Harry Brook
