Star performers from Delhi Premier League 2024 could be in big demand at the IPL 2025 auction.

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 mega auction is the talk of the town now. Players playing in different leagues in India are eagerly waiting for the 18th edition of the IPL.

Players from Delhi got a chance to impress the IPL franchise owners and scouts through the Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2024. East Delhi won the inaugural season of the DPL.

This tournament saw some exceptional individual performances. It had everything from a hat-trick to blistering centuries; from six sixes in an over to a rare 300+ total. That’s why the DPL 2024 caught the attention of the world.

Even the IPL franchises would be keen to sign some of the DPL 2024 stars. In this article, we will talk about the five players who can earn a big deal at the IPL 2025 auction after brilliant performances in the DPL 2024.

Here are the five players from Delhi Premier League 2024 who might earn big bucks at IPL 2025 auction

5. Ayush Thakur

Purani Dilli 6 finished the DPL 2024 at third place after their semi-final against South Delhi Superstarz was washed out. This was an unfortunate end for them, but they had brought to light some highly talented players. One of them was right-arm pacer Aayush Singh Thakur.

The right-arm pacer finished with joint-most wickets in the tournament. He took 18 wickets in ten matches at an economy rate of 9 and a best of 5/27. He was effective with both new and old balls.

4. Himmat Singh

The captain of East Delhi Riders, Himmat Singh, led the team from the front. He was excellent as a captain with his decision-making, and as a batter, scored the most runs for his team. He was the third-highest scorer in the tournament.

Himmat scored 381 runs in 10 innings at an average of 63.5 and a strike rate of 165.65, with four half-centuries. His ability to score runs at a good rate was remarkable.

3. Mayank Rawat

An Indian all-rounder with the ability to hit sixes is always a hot prospect at an IPL auction, and Mayank Rawat brings the same skillset to the table. The power-hitting all-rounder was one of the key reasons that East Delhi Riders won the DPL 2024. He bagged the Man of the Match award in the final for his all-round performance.

He scored 289 runs at an average of 72.25 and a strike rate of 190.13. With the ball, he took 11 wickets at an economy rate of 7.04. Mayank hit five consecutive sixes in an over in the final against Ayush Badoni. These are some great stats to get noticed and fetch big money at the IPL 2025 auction.

2. Ayush Badoni

Ayush Badoni’s South Delhi Superstarz lost the final, but he personally had a great season. He has already established himself as a utility player in the IPL for Lucknow Super Giants, and now with a great DPL season, he is likely to get a bumper deal in the auction, if LSG don’t retain him.

Badoni was the second-highest scorer in the tournament. He scored 522 runs at an average of 58 and an excellent strike rate of 225. Badoni scored one century and four half-centuries with the most sixes (51) in the tournament.

1. Priyansh Arya

Priyansh Arya had a dream run in the DPL 2024, as he made a mockery of almost every opposition that he played against. The young opener from South Delhi Superstarz ended up scoring the most runs in the tournament.

He scored 608 runs at an average of 67.56 and a strike rate of 198.69, with two centuries and four half-centuries. He smashed six sixes in an over and displayed his power-hitting ability. There is a massive demand for such Indian players, and he might be one of the costliest uncapped Indians at the IPL 2025 auction.
