1. Joe Root
Former England skipper Joe Root is set to make his debut against DC. In the game against PBKS, Jos Buttler injured his finger and came out to bat at number three, going against his usual opening slot. Recent reports suggest that Buttler got a few stitches and might sit out. In that case, the 2019 World Cup winner might come to open the batting with Yashasvi Jaiswal.
