DC has been one of the finest teams on paper; however, their performance on the field has not been up to the mark. They have failed to qualify for the playoffs in the last four seasons; they last qualified for the top 4 in 2021, and in 2020 they played in the final of the tournament, losing to Mumbai Indians (MI).
Sourav Ganguly said (as quoted by News18), "We have two overseas players in our sights. We want to bring in Australia’s Fraser McGurk and West Indies’ Shai Hope." However, with a stacked top order, DC will like to let go of some of their batters to make room for the two players that the head coach has in mind.
Jake Fraser-McGurk's IPL career
However, the Aussie opener did not have the best of times in the 2025 season, as he played just 6 games and scored 55 runs, and his strike rate also dropped. He was released by the franchise ahead of the 2026 mini-auction and was unsold during the mini–auction. If he gets a lifeline yet again, he needs to capitalise on it.
Shai Hope will be in demand in the IPL 2027 mini-auction
Hope has been sensational in the last few years as he has developed as a batter and a captain as well. The Windies white-ball captain was superb in the T20I series against India, finishing as the leading run-scorer with 261 runs and scoring two centuries in the five matches he played.
