The franchise purchased English cricketers Jason Roy and Chris Woakes during the IPL 2020 auction back in December 2019. However, both players opted out of the tournament and were replaced by Daniel Sams and Anrich Nortje respectively. Additionally, the DC squad consists of as many as three Australian players in their IPL 2020 set-up. The players, namely Marcus Stoinis, Alex Carey and Daniel Sams are all currently in England for a limited-overs series against the hosts. Hence, the three cricketers are likely to be excluded from the DC squad in the first week of the premier T20 event.
