Ajinkya Rahane-Shikhar Dhawan
If Delhi Capitals can play this combination in their matches, this will be one of the most experienced opening pairs of all teams going around. The 2 aesthetic players who can absolutely make a mockery of any bowling attack on their day can be a huge plus for the Delhi Capitals considering their less experienced middle-order that consists of Pant, Hetmyer and the skipper himself Shreyas Iyer.
The ageing factor might go against them as franchise might look to start their innings with young and swashbuckling players which is a mandatory requirement in the modern-day cricket.
Nevertheless, the experienced duo of Dhawan and Rahane might be needed for the Capitals at some stage in their 2020 journey.

It will be a treat to watch for the fans if these two talented, dynamic, swashbuckling, and exciting right-handers open the innings for the Delhi capitals. Both these players have a similar playing style and can cause turmoil on the field.
Although this combination is highly unlikely to pan out for the Capitals because of the overseas players constraint as they already have 3 options locked with Rabada, Hetmyer, and Woakes it will be interesting to see how the DC management picks their playing XI for every game as they have all sorts of dynamic players in their squad.
