The English pacer who plays for Yorkshire in the domestic circuit was signed by the Delhi Daredevils as a replacement for the injured Proteas speedster, Kagiso Rabada who was ruled of this season due to a back injury. During this year's auctions, Plunkett, with an enormous base price of INR 2 crore, went unsold.

He has played 15 T20I matches for England, picking up 19 wickets at an economy of 7.45 with his best figures being 3/21. Plunkett, who is yet to play an IPL game in his career, can serve Delhi well due to his rich experience in the absence of a world-class player like Rabada.

But he is yet to break into the Delhi eleven this season.
