Ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction, Delhi Capitals had retained Axar Patel (16.50 crore), Kuldeep Yadav (13.25 crore), Tristan Stubbs (10 crore), and Abhishek Porel (4 crore). The franchise had entered the auction with a purse of Rs 73 crore and bought great players like KL Rahul, Mitchell Starc, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Harry Brook, Ashutosh Sharma, T Natarajan and Mohit Sharma.

The bowling unit of Delhi Capitals is looking great for the upcoming season of IPL, regarding which cricket commentator Akash Chopra has given a big statement. He said that the bowling attack of Gujarat and Mumbai is excellent. But Delhi has the best bowling attack in the death overs.

Aakash Chopra said this about the fast bowling of Delhi Capitals

Delhi Capitals has bowlers like T Natarajan and Mukesh Kumar, who have the power to turn the game in the last overs. Aakash Chopra praised Natarajan’s consistency, saying that his figures were among the best among Indian bowlers. On the other hand, Mukesh has become a death-bowling specialist for Delhi. At the same time, the team also has Starc and Mohit Sharma.

While talking on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said,

No one has had a better bowler than him for more than 15 to 20 years. If you look at T Natarajan’s numbers and compare them with all the other Indian players, you will find that he is very, very good, and last year was also good. Mukesh Kumar’s stature has increased a lot. He has death bowling for this franchise and has performed very well.

They have bought Mitchell Starc, and it has proved to be a big steal. His fees have been reduced by 50 percent compared to last time. This time he had to come in a big auction. As soon as you get into a big auction, your price gets cut in half. They also have Mohit Sharma.

Delhi has the best spin bowling of this tournament- Chopra

At the same time, due to the presence of Akshar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav, the spin bowling of Delhi Capitals is strong. Both the players can prove fatal for the opposing teams in the middle order.

Delhi has the best spin bowling of this tournament and interestingly, they did not need an auction because they have Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav. No team has eight overs of this kind of spin and that is why both were retained. He was given a lot of money and asked to stay. On the small ground and flat pitch of Delhi, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, a lot of sixes are hit. If you don’t have quality there you get exposed. Quality is the only thing that sets you apart from others, and the two spinners here shine like gold.

Speaking with former England captain Alastair Cook on TNT Sports, Steven Finn said, “Jaiswal scored a brilliant 161, but he is the player I like to watch. That is Jasprit Bumrah. I think he really is the best player in the world. Honestly, sometimes I think bowling like him is a joke! You see him bowling and you just think, I’m glad I don’t have to come out to bat.” He further said, “I was surprised that India went there (Australia) and defeated Australia, where usually it is very difficult to go and play cricket.
