Delhi Capitals have retained eight Indian players and five overseas stars ahead of the auction. Captain Jemimah Rodrigues and opener Shafali Verma remain central to the batting unit, while South African all-rounder Marizanne Kapp and Australian all-rounder Annabel Sutherland provide experience and balance.

The franchise has also retained Laura Wolvaardt, Chinelle Henry and young Australian pacer Lucy Hamilton among its overseas contingent.

DC released six players ahead of the auction: Lizelle Lee, Taniyaa Bhatia, Alana King, Pragati Singh, E. Srujana and Sneh Rana. The departures of wicketkeeper-batter Lee, Indian wicketkeeper Bhatia and spinner King leave the franchise with options to consider as it finalises its squad.

The complete list of players bought by Delhi Capitals will be updated as the auction progresses.

Players Bought By Delhi Capitals And Their Auction Prices

Delhi Capitals have ₹1.10 crore available to fill their remaining five slots. With only one overseas position open, the franchise will need to be selective when considering international players.

Strengthening the wicketkeeping department and adding depth to the bowling attack could be among the areas DC assess. The franchise must also balance its requirements against its limited budget, making value-for-money acquisitions particularly important.

The list of players signed by Delhi Capitals, along with their base prices and final auction prices, will be updated during the auction.
