IPL 2018: Biggest strength of each franchise

#2 Delhi Daredevils - Gautam Gambhir's captaincy

Can Gautam Gambhir lead the Delhi Daredevils to their first ever IPL title?

The Delhi Daredevils are yet to win their maiden IPL title. Every season, they come in to the IPL with a good-looking team on paper, but falter when it matters. The Delhi Daredevils have not had a constant captain in their ranks since Virender Sehwag retired in 2012. With talented youngsters like Shreyas Iyer, Rishab Pant and Vijay Shankar in the squad, they need a leader to mentor and guide them. Luckily for them, they managed to procure one of the best captains this tournament has seen in the form of Gautam Gambhir.

The 35-year-old has captained the Knight Riders to two IPL titles. He has built a name for himself for his brilliant captaincy. His understanding of the game and cricketing tactics are tried and tested. Moreover, Gambhir will have extra motivation to guide the Delhi Daredevils to the title as he is a staunch Delhi-ite himself!

With a proven leader in their ranks, could this finally be the Delhi Daredevils' season?
