England batter Harry Brook has opted out of the IPL 2025 to prioritize his commitments with the national team. Delhi Capitals (DC) had secured him for INR 6.25 crore in the auction, but this marks the second consecutive season he has withdrawn.
These five players might take Harry Brook’s spot in DC’s IPL 2025 roster as they would now need to find other overseas players as his replacement.
Harry Brook replacement for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2025
Dewald Brevis
Dewald Brevis could be a strong candidate to replace Harry Brook. Having previously played 10 IPL matches for Mumbai Indians, he entered the IPL 2025 auction with a base price of INR 75 lakh but remained unsold. However, his recent performances have been impressive.
Ben Duckett
Ben Duckett is a strong replacement option for Delhi Capitals, given his recent form across formats. He impressed in the Champions Trophy 2025 with 227 runs in three games and performed well in India and the BBL, making him a valuable choice.
Daryl Mitchell
Daryl Mitchell appears to be a strong contender to replace Harry Brook, given his stature in international cricket and consistent performances in recent years. His ability to adapt to different batting positions and switch gears seamlessly makes him a valuable and versatile option.
Michael Bracewell
Delhi Capitals likely have one of the best spin attacks, rivaling CSK’s experienced lineup. However, they might consider an overseas spin all-rounder. Roston Chase suits subcontinental conditions, while Michael Bracewell, impressive in the Champions Trophy and with IPL experience, could be another solid option.
Sikandar Raza
Sikandar Raza may not be a first-choice pick, but he brings value as a middle-order hitter and handy off-spinner. His all-round efforts helped Dubai Capitals win the ILT20. With IPL experience at PBKS, scoring 182 runs and taking three wickets, he could be a useful option.
