The Indian Premier League(IPL) is now only a day away and cricket fans all around the globe are geared up for it. The IPL has always been fascinating, both for the cricketers and their fans. Though the players give their all on the ground during practice sessions, they have to work even harder with their packed behind the scenes schedule. In Part I of the article, we covered the photo shoot where Daredevils players had fun shooting promos.

The previous shoot we covered took place on 29th March 2018 which featured most of the Indian players. The shoot was graced by the presence of Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer, Amit Mishra, Shahbaz Nadeem, Vijay Shankar, Naman Ojha, Jayant Yadav, Prithvi Shaw and Nepal's Sandeep Lamichhane. The shoot we're talking about here was all about the overseas players - Chris Morris, Daniel Christian, Trent Boult, Jason Roy and Colin Munro.

Both the shoots were organized by Daikin - title sponsor of the Delhi Daredevils. The GMR Group-owned IPL franchisee first inked a sponsorship with Daikin India in 2015 and they will be the lead sponsor of Delhi Daredevils for the fourth consecutive year.

The Daredevils players enjoyed their time in front of the camera. Munro, Morris and Christian, especially, were most excited about the rapid fire round which will shortly be up on the social media handle of Delhi Daredevils. All the overseas players were excited to know their new teammates as well. All of them were gelling up along nicely even after being a part of different franchises over the years.

During today's shoot, the overseas players played many games like punchbag soccer, cricket pictionary, truth or dare and Jenga. All of these games were hosted by famous Indian VJ Cyrus Sahukar who enjoyed his time with the players. Boult enjoyed teaching various things to Prithvi Shaw during the truth or dare task, more of which will be revealed on Daredevils' social media page.

DD will play their first game against Kings XI Punjab on 8th April in Mohali. The Delhi-based franchise left for Mohali at 2:30 PM whereas their skipper Gautam Gambhir, who was a part of the captain's meet, will reach Mohali from Mumbai.
