After an entertaining first season in 2024, the new edition of Delhi Premier League (DPL) will begin on August 2. The tournament is extended to include two new teams: Outer Delhi Warriors and New Delhi Tigers. The tournament will begin with the opening match between South Delhi Superstarz and East Delhi Riders on Saturday. Some Premier League players in India (IPL) also participate in DPL 2025. With the IPL 2026 auction, many players will try to use this opportunity to do well and strengthen their retention possibilities.

Here is a look at five players whose form in DPL 2025 could be crucial to decide its retention possibilities of IPL 2026.

Nithish frog

NITIH Rana was released by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) after the 2024 season and collected by Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the IPL 2025 auction. He played 11 games for RR and scored 217 races, but the last three games was lost due to an injury. He hit each game he played, but his batting position continued to change. Sometimes he hit the number 3, another 4 or 5, so his role was never resolved.

It will be interesting to see whether or not it retains it before the IPL 2026 auction. But before that, its performance in DPL 2025 could play a very important role. If you play well, you could gain the trust of the RR administration. It will lead the Lions of the West of Delhi.

Suashh Sharma

Suashh Sharma was also launched by KKR after season IPL 2024 and was collected by Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) during the IPL 2025 auction. He played 14 games for the IPL 2025 champions and took eight WICKETS with an economy of 8.84. Although the 22 -year -old did not take many wickets, it was economical with the ball. His best performance of the season came at the right time during qualifier 1. chose 3 for 17 against Punjab Kings (PBKs) and helped RCB qualify for the final. So, he has shown that he can do well in great matches.

In the previous season of DPL, Suashh represented the strikers of northern Delhi and took 11 wickts in 10 games. It will represent the Lions of Delhi Exteriors in DPL 2025. If you manage to constantly choose more WICKETS, it will increase its chances of staying with RCB

Anuj Rawat

Anuj Rawat was bought by the Gujarat Titans at the IPL 2025 auction after being released by RCB after the 2024 season. He had no chance during the IPL 2025 season as the first GT order of Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler was so strong and so good that they did not make any change. The only change they had to do was when Buttler lost the playoffs due to international service. They brought Kusal Mendis to play instead, but since Mendis was a temporary replacement, he cannot be retained for the next season.

So, there is a ray of hope for Rawat to win the confidence of the GT franchise. If you work well in DPL 2025, your IPL destination could change. He will represent the horsemen of the East of Delhi. In the previous season, he scored 356 races in 10 games and was the fourth highest race in the tournament.

Simarjeet Singh

Simarjary Singh played for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL 2025 season. He played only four games in the season and took two WICKETS. Its economy was quite high in 14.10, due to which it could be released before the IPL 2026 auction.

Simarjeet will represent the kings of the center of Delhi at DPL 2025. He was the main wickt bearer in the league last season, representing the riders of the East of Delhi, with 18 wickts in 10 games. If you can repeat the same type of performance this time too, you could change the mind of SRH management.

Prince Yadav

Prince Yadav was bought by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) for season IPL 2025. He obtained the offer due to his performances in the last Syed Mushtaq Ali trophy and the Vijay Hazare 2025 trophy. He took 11 WICKETS in eight games in SMMA and 11 WICKETS in six games in VHT last season. In the IPL 2025 season, many of LSG’s main palants were injured, so Prince could play six games. He took three wickts and had an economy rate of 9.85.

Prince represented Purani Dilli 6 in the previous season of DPL and took 13 WICKETS in 10 games, finishing fifth in the list of the main Wickt carriers. This season, it will seek to offer a similar action and increase its retention hopes of IPL 2026, since it represents the Tigers of New Delhi.
