Delhi Capitals recently parted ways with Ricky Ponting just ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction, and they are yet to announce their next head coach. Reportedly, they have been looking for an Indian coach who has a great understanding of domestic Indian players.

Delhi Capitals have yet to win the IPL trophy, and with that goal in mind, they will once again start building their squad from scratch in IPL 2025 with the mega auction just a few days away. On that note, let’s take a look at the top three players that Delhi Capitals will target in the IPL 2025 mega auction.

Delhi Capitals Target Players List for IPL 2025 Mega Auction: 

1. Ayush Badoni

The young Delhi batsman was the second-highest scorer in the Delhi Premier League 2024, and he even led his team from the front. Given that he is familiar with Arun Jaitley Stadium, where he grew up playing, Delhi Capitals should target him because they are in dire need of an Indian opener.

Although Prithvi Shaw has been with the team, he has been too inconsistent. If Ayush Badoni comes in, he can open alongside Jake Fraser-McGurk, with Rishabh Pant coming in at number three as a floater, allowing him to switch his game as the match demands.

2. Nandre Burger

One thing that Delhi Capitals lacked significantly in IPL 2024 was their death bowling. Although South African fast bowler Anrich Nortje was present, he had an unforgettable campaign, being thrashed all around the park. 

Delhi Capitals need someone to support Mukesh Kumar in the death overs, and in that case, Nandre Burger can step up. He can bowl in both the powerplay and the death overs. Furthermore, he brings a left-arm fast bowling angle, which is more challenging to tackle.

3. Shimron Hetmyer

Another area that Delhi Capitals will target is the finishing role. Although Tristan Stubbs is there, they need someone to partner with him and finish the job. In this case, West Indies hard-hitting batsman Shimron Hetmyer could be a great option for that role. He has already represented Delhi Capitals in the past.
