The Delhi Daredevils are yet to win their first title in the Indian Premier League. Its been a decade of title drought for the Delhi Daredevils and they would surely want to refabricate their winning chances with a new team they eye to build up. The auctions for IPL 2018 are just imminent and they would be scratching their heads already.

Delhi has retained Shreyas Iyer, Chris Morris, and Risabh Pant but then they would not really enough to win it for Delhi on their own. Delhi would need some really good international players to swing things their way and give Delhi an edge over other teams.
So, here are the 5 international players the Delhi Daredevils Must Eye in The Auctions
1.Trent Boult
Boult is a great bowler and he has also been named in ICC ODI XI for his stellar form in limited overs cricket. Boult is a wicket-taking bowler and he would be a difficult bowler to get away.

Delhi should really think about buying Trent Boult to make their pace attack look really solid.
2. Martin Guptill
Guptill is a destructive batsman and he can decimate any bowling attack when he gets going. Martin Guptill can give flying starts to a team in the shortest format which the middle order can capitalize on.
Guptill has a strike rate of over 130 in T20s and also has a century to his name in the shortest format of international cricket. Delhi should definitely think about him.
3. Joe Root
The England captain would make a perfect captain for the Delhi Daredevils. Joe Root is a consistent performer and he averages almost 40 in T20 internationals which is just amazing in terms of T20 standards.

Joe Root has a handsome strike rate of 128 in T20 internationals and the highest score of 90.
4. Rashid Khan
42 wickets from 27 T20 internationals, that is Rashid Khan for you. The 19-year-old sensation from Afghanistan is the number one ranked T20 bowler in the ICC rankings.

Rashid Khan will be the key to Delhi’s success if Delhi can get him.
5. James Faulkner
They already have a great all rounder in Chris Morris and Faulkner would only make things better for them. James Faulkner is one of the best death overs bowler and an explosive batsman who can hike the run rate anytime.

With Ben Stokes perhaps missing out on the IPL James Faulkner would be the favorite all-rounder for the franchises along with Dwayne Bravo.
