Like every year here i bring the SWOT analysis for every team , Starting with :dc:

 

Exod4CSXMAAQyho?format=jpg&name=small

 

 

Strength 

 

  • Very solid indian core- Pant, shaw, dhawan, ashwin, rahane, ishant, umesh, Amit mishra .....to do well in IPL u need a good indian core
  • Rabada-Nortje
  • Form of Shaw n Pant 
  • Solid 5 bowlers in which 5th choice wud be - Ishant/umesh/mishra (what players to have for horses for courses )
  • Dhawan becomes an Asset in IPL 
  • Good backups 
  • Good mix of Left-Right batsman 

 

Weakness- 

 

  • They dont have someone like a russell, pandya , pollard at 6 or 7. With iyer injury i think stonis will bat high . They have picked ripal n lalit for the power hitter role but they lack experience 
  • Temptation to play Rahane n Smith in absence of Iyer which cud work as speed breakers for them 

 

Opportunity

 

  • For ashwin n dhawan to reclaim their spot in indian t20 side
  • Pant to prove his captaincy
  • Shaw to be back in India reckoning 
  • Potential team that can beat  

 

Threat

 

  • captaincy can affect pant's batting also 
  • their batsman wont enjoy slow surfaces 

 

 

Gameplan - with iyer gone i think they shud have hetymer n pant at 3 n 4 and play attacking cricket, MI has already shown hows its done. Dhawan can bat the way he does in that lineup 

 

 

  Plan A (attacking) Plan B (Safe) Plan C (batting heavy) Plan D (lower order cushion)
1 Dhawan Dhawan Dhawan Dhawan
2 Shaw Shaw Shaw Shaw
3 Hetymer Smith Smith/ Hetymer Smith/ Hetymer
4 Pant (c n wk) Pant (c n wk) Pant (c n wk) Pant (c n wk)
5 Stonis Stonis Stonis Stonis
6 Lalit yadav/ Ripal Lalit yadav/ Ripal Billings Lalit yadav/ Ripal
7 Axar Axar Axar woakes/curran
8 Ashwin Ashwin Ashwin Axar
9 Rabada Rabada Rabada Ashwin
10 Nortje Nortje Ishant Rabada
11 Ishant/ Umesh/ Mishra/ Meriwala Ishant/ Umesh/ Mishra/ Meriwala Umesh/ Mishra/ Meriwala Ishant/ Umesh/ Mishra/ Meriwala

Yep first game they'll probably go with Woakes, Curran and Mishra. Woakes is a decent backup but curran could become a liability. But does give them extra batting depth

play one among curran n woakes , no need to play both instead play billings

Need 2 fast bowling replacements for Nortje and Rabada... Might also decide to go with Umesh and Ishant both actually.. In that case, Smith at 3 and Billings at 6..seems a decent first XI

 

I'll go with 

Shaw

Dhawan

Smith

Pant

Stoinis

Billings 

Woakes

Mishra

Ashwin 

Ishant 

Umesh

In your Swot teams, none of them had Rahane in the XI, yet he starts today :hysterical:

Seems like DC management missed your analysis

 

Cant believe DC haven't got more attacking batsmen then him
