Chris Morris has been a great servant for the Delhi Capitals over the last 5-6 seasons. He has played some crucial knocks with the bat and established himself as one of the most aggressive batsmen in the league. He also proved himself to be an excellent wicket-taking option and was reliable at the death.

However, his performances have taken a hit over the last two years on account of injuries. He is no more the same batsman and can't score runs at an aggressive strike rate. His bowling is still good enough as he managed to pick up 13 wickets at a strike rate of 15.23. He was quite effective at the death as well and formed a good partnership with Kagiso Rabada.

He was retained in 2018 for a staggering ₹11 crore and considering the fact that his role is now of a bowling all-rounder and not that of a specialist all-rounder, he shouldn't go for anything more than ₹3-4 crore. They would do well to release him and buy him back for a much cheaper price as he would still be of great use to them with the ball.
