Delhi Capitals IPL 2025: SWOT Analysis
Strengths: Delhi Capitals’ batting order, with the inclusion of players like Faf du Plessis and KL Rahul, has become robust. Explosive openers like Jake Fraser McGurk and middle-order batter Tristan Stubbs provide enough stability to the batting line-up.
Weaknesses: A new captain who doesn’t have that much exposure to lead a big side can be the weakest link of DC, though Faf du Plessis will be the vice-captain of the side it will be a test for Axar Patel to lead the side.
Opportunities: Youngsters like Abishek Porel showed a glimpse of his potential last season, and the upcoming season could be an opportunity for him to showcase his cricket prowess.
Threats: With Harry Brook pulling out of the league before its start, Delhi Capitals left a void in the top batting order. It will be interesting to see whether they could find a potential player to replace the English batter.
