IPL 2025: 3 DC Players Who Can Clinch The Purple Cap

As the IPL 2025 season approaches, cricket enthusiasts and analysts alike are buzzing with predictions and analyses, particularly around which bowlers might clinch the prestigious Purple Cap, awarded to the tournament’s leading wicket-taker. For Delhi Capitals, the spotlight is on three key bowlers: Mitchell Starc, Mohit Sharma, and T Natarajan. Each brings a unique set of skills to the table, making them formidable contenders for this accolade.

Mitchell Starc:

Mitchell Starc, acquired by Delhi Capitals for a hefty sum of 11.75 Crore, stands out as one of the most feared bowlers in world cricket. His ability to generate pace, swing the ball both ways, and deliver pinpoint yorkers makes him a nightmare for batsmen, especially in the death overs. Starc’s performance in previous IPL seasons, although not always consistent, has shown glimpses of his world-class ability. In IPL 2024, despite a mixed bag of results, his best performances indicated his potential to dominate. If Starc can maintain his fitness and focus, his natural talent could see him leading the wicket-takers’ chart. His experience in international cricket, particularly in T20s, gives him an edge, making him a strong candidate for the Purple Cap.

Mohit Sharma:

Mohit Sharma, often overlooked in the glamour of big names, has been a consistent performer for Delhi Capitals. Priced at 2.20 Crore, Mohit’s value lies in his ability to bowl with precision in the middle overs, often going under the radar but delivering crucial breakthroughs. His economy rate and knack for picking up wickets at crucial junctures make him an unsung hero. Mohit’s approach, focusing on line and length rather than raw pace, could be his ticket to the Purple Cap. His performances in domestic cricket and IPL have shown that when conditions suit, he can be as effective as any international star. If Mohit continues his form from IPL 2024, where he was often the go-to bowler for tight spells, he could surprise many by clinching the Purple Cap.

T Natarajan:

T Natarajan, at 2 Crore, represents the value buy of the season for Delhi Capitals. His rise in international cricket, particularly with his ability to bowl yorkers under pressure, has made him a fan favorite. Natarajan’s IPL 2024 performance, where he was in the zone, holding the Purple Cap for a significant part of the season, showcases his potential. His knack for bowling at the death, combined with his ability to swing the ball, makes him a versatile option. If Natarajan can replicate his form from IPL 2024, where he was not only taking wickets but also bowling economically, he could be a dark horse for the Purple Cap. His journey from being an understudy to a lead bowler could culminate in one of the most remarkable individual achievements in IPL history.

The IPL 2025 season promises to be a thrilling spectacle, especially with bowlers like Starc, Mohit, and Natarajan in the fray for Delhi Capitals. Each brings something unique to the table: Starc with his raw pace and international experience, Mohit with his consistent and economical bowling, and Natarajan with his precision yorkers. While the Purple Cap race is always unpredictable, given the quality of bowling across teams, these three from Delhi Capitals have as good a chance as any. Their performances will not only dictate their team’s fortunes but also keep fans and analysts glued to their screens, eagerly watching every delivery. As the tournament unfolds, cricket lovers will be keen to see if Starc’s firepower, Mohit’s consistency, or Natarajan’s precision will reign supreme in the quest for the Purple Cap.
