CricPokChic Posted December 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Delhi Daredevils renamed Delhi Capitals ahead of IPL 2019 The Delhi franchise is looking to make a fresh start in the IPL after years of underachievement. Delhi in fact are the only original team to have never made it to the final of any edition of the Indian Premier League. The new logo and name of the IPL Delhi franchise(Twitter/Delhi Capitals) Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Delhi Daredevils were on Tuesday renamed as Delhi Capitals and the announcement was made in a function in the capital by owners GMR Group and JSW Sports. Co-owners Parth Jindal, representing JSW Sport, and Kiran Kumar Grandhi of GMR, unveiled the new name of the team. “Delhi is the power centre of the country, it is the capital, therefore the name Delhi Capitals,” Jindal said. The team has retained the old red and blue colour in the new team logo. “Our logo has been inspired by the design of Parliament House. Tiger is our national animal and the three tigers idea is derived from the Ashok Chakra,” said Jindal. The change in name comes close on the heels of JSW Sports picking up a 50 percent stake in the franchise. Ahead of the 2019 IPL auctions, the Delhi Daredevils released former captain Gautam Gambhir and a host of international stars which include Jason Roy, Glenn Maxwell and Liam Plunkett, along with Indian paceman Mohammed Shami. Delhi Capitals ✔@DelhiCapitals Dilliwasiyon, say hello to Delhi Capitals!#ThisIsNewDelhi 666 5:38 AM - Dec 4, 2018 1 Delhi have Rs 25 crore to spend at the IPL auction on December 18 and Jindal said the team has its plans in place. “We obviously can’t share them with you. The core of the team has remained the same for the last couple of years. We need to invest more in the youth and going forward, that is something we will continue to focus on,” said Jindal. “With Dhawan, we have got more solidity at the top. And the young guys who have been with us (Prithvi Shaw and Rishabh Pant) are doing well for India. The captain and coach are the same, there is continuity there,” said the JSW Director, when asked about the team’s dismal run season after season. The Delhi franchise is looking to make a fresh start in the league after years of underachievement. Delhi in fact are the only original team to have never made it to the final of any edition of the IPL. The squad has already been bolstered by the return of Shikhar Dhawan, who has switched over from Sunrisers Hyderabad. In a video message played during the function Dhawan said that he is happy to be back to his home city and is looking forward to do well in the upcoming season. The team boasts of a battery of young Indian stars which include captain Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant and Prithvi Shaw. Mohammed Kaif was earlier named as the team’s assistant coach while Ricky Ponting continues to be the head coach of the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CricPokChic Posted December 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Glenn Maxwell, Aaron Finch opt out of IPL auction Glenn Maxwell and Aaron Finch have chosen not to enter the IPL auction, keeping in mind Australia's packed schedule over the first half of 2019 - a home summer followed by a World Cup in England, and then the Ashes series. England's Sam Curran, one of the finds of 2018 as an allrounder, has put himself in a group of nine capped players who have listed themselves at the maximum base price of INR 2 crore (USD 278,000 approx). Also among this group is Sri Lanka fast bowler Lasith Malinga, who last season was on the Mumbai Indians coaching staff, playing the role of mentor. Mawell and Finch were among a host of players released by their franchises in November, having just spent one season with their new teams. Maxwell was released by Delhi Daredevils (now renamed Delhi Capitals), who signed him in January for INR 9 crore (USD 1.4 million approx then). Finch was picked by Kings XI Punjab for INR 6.2 crore (USD 948,000). Which of these marquee names will fetch the highest bid? ESPNcricinfo Ltd Among some of the big names listed in the auction pool are Dale Steyn (base price INR 1.5 crore/USD 208,000 approx), Brendon McCullum, D'Arcy Short, Corey Anderson (all INR 2 crore). Jaydev Unadkat has listed the maximum base price by an Indian player at INR 1.5 crore. Unadkat, the left-arm fast bowler, was the the highest-paid Indian player at the January 2018 auction, with Rajasthan Royals signing him for INR 11.5 crore (USD 1.796 million approx). Other big-name Indian players that have put themselves back on the auction pool are Yuvraj Singh, Mohammed Shami and Axar Patel, all at a base price of INR 1 crore (USD 138,000 approx). Availability was always going to be the key factor ahead of this auction, scheduled for December 18 in Jaipur. Although the BCCI has not finalised the dates the IPL is likely to run between March 23 and mid-May. The venue, too, has not been finalised because the BCCI is waiting for the dates of India's general elections. In 2009 and 2014 - the last two seasons that clashed with general elections - the IPL moved to South Africa and the UAE (first half of the season) respectively. ESPNcricinfo understands the BCCI has decided to wait until mid-January before finalising the venue. The BCCI wants the IPL to take place in India as far as possible but has worked out a back-up plan where the tournament will be displaced overseas with South Africa as a favorite alternate venue. But the biggest challenge for the franchises next season is that the IPL will end a couple of weeks before the World Cup begins on May 30 in England. The availability of overseas players, as a result, has been the biggest concern for the franchises. Sarfaraz Khan's reserve price is a steep fall from his riches from IPL 2018 ESPNcricinfo Ltd In an email sent to the franchises on Monday, which ESPNcricinfo has accessed, the IPL listed out the cut-off dates for overseas players for all countries. Barring New Zealand and West Indies, all other boards have restricted the availability of their players. The Australian players will spend the least time in the IPL considering the Sheffield Shield final ends on April 1. Moreover, most of the first-choice Australian players, including Maxwell and Finch, are likely to be in the UAE playing a five-match ODI series against Pakistan. Although the dates have not been announced yet, that series is expected to begin in late March and end in the first half of April. Cricket Australia has set May 2 as the cut-off date for players in their World Cup squad to return for a preparatory camp. The players in England's World Cup squad will return home on April 25 for their camp while the rest of the English players can continue in the IPL until May 19. The South African players will need to report for their World Cup camp by May 10, the Sri Lankans by May 6, Bangladesh's players by April 15 and Ireland's by April 30. The Afghanistan Cricket Board is yet to finalise a cut-off date. On Monday, the IPL sent a longlist of 946 players to the eight franchises including 200 capped players, of whom 25 are Indians and three are Associate players. The franchises will need to send the IPL the list of players they want added to the longlist by December 7. By December 10, the franchises will need to send the IPL the list of players they want in the auction pool following which a pruned and final list will be prepared.

Short - Don't be surprised if he goes unsold. Corey - Mostly Unsold. Unadkat - may fetch 4 Cr max more than that waste bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
