DELHI DAREDEVILS




DELHI DAREDEVILS


Squad: Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Manoj Tiwary, Mohammad Asif, Daniel Vettori, Dinesh Karthik, Shoaib Malik, Glenn McGrath, AB de Villiers, Tillekeratne Dilshan, Farveez Maharoof, Rajat Bhatia, Shikhar Dhawan, Brett Geeves, Yo Mahesh, Mithun Manhas, Pradeep Sangwan, Mayank Tehlan.

Coach: Greg Shipperd - A former Australian first-class cricketer who coaches the Victoria Bushrangers, Shipperd is renowned for his expert tactical thinking

Captain: Virender Sehwag - The opener is a man who needs no excuse to play his shots, so expect Sehwag to lead from the front with an aggressive approach.

Outlook: The Daredevils, an appropriate name for a team led by a cavalier like Sehwag, have packed their squad with all-rounders, including two international captains in Daniel Vettori and Shoaib Malik, although neither are available for the entire event. Glenn McGrath is after retiring from Australia and although he may be a little long in the tooth it shouldn't take him too long to get back in the swing of things, something Mohammad Asif also needs to do after a lengthy period out of action.
