With an expensive economy of 9.79. With the bat, he did not get many opportunities as he scored just 120 runs with an avegrage of 15.

“Shardul is a premium all-rounder but his price tag was an issue. The others who are set to be released are Hebbar, Mandeep, Seifert and Bharat,” an IPL source was quoted by TOI.

Ashwin Hebbar is also another name which could be released by DC ahead of the auction. Hebbar did not get a game in the tournament last year.

While the other batters failed to make noticeable contributions in the few opportunities they had in Delhi Capitals colours.

Seifert and Bharat are both wicketkeeper-batters and hence, they will need a backup for Rishabh Pant if they decide to release them.
