IPL 2024: Delhi Capitals has replaced English batsman Harry Brook. The franchise has included South African fast bowler Lizard Williams in the team in his place. Let us tell you that Brook had withdrawn from IPL 2024 after the death of his grandmother. 30-year-old Williams is the third foreign fast bowler in Delhi Capitals after Anrich Nortje and Jhye Richardson. Delhi has added him to its camp at a base price of Rs 50 lakh. Williams can debut in the match against Lucknow to be held on Friday, April 12.
Bowling is a problem for Delhi Capitals
Let us tell you that Delhi Capitals have had a very bad start in IPL season 17, after losing 4 out of 5 matches played so far, the team has slipped to the bottom position in the points table of the current season. The biggest problem for captain Rishabh Pant’s team is its weak bowling. In IPL 2024, the score of more than 230 has been made against the team twice.
However, apart from fast bowlers like Enrich Norkhia, Ishant Sharma, Khalil Ahmed, Jhye Richardson and Mukesh Kumar, Delhi also has two fast bowling all-rounders in Mitchell Marsh and Sumit Kumar. Who have the power to change the course of the match, but due to injuries to Lungi Ngidi and Mitchell Marsh, Delhi’s bowling has become weak. After the entry of Williams, the fast bowling department of the team will become even stronger than before.
Know how Lizard Williams’ cricket career has been
Lizard Williams has taken 106 wickets in 83 T20s with a bowling average of 19.76. He made his debut for South Africa in April 2022 and has played two Tests, four ODIs and 11 T20s so far. Lizard Williams was part of South Africa’s squad for the 2023 ODI World Cup and played a match against Bangladesh. He took 15 wickets for Joburg Super Kings in the SA20 and finished fourth in the list of wicket-takers.
