Obviously, some of the early names that we went for, the prices went very high, so we had to pull out. But if we look back at how the three rounds have gone, we're happy. We have a legend of the game in Meg Lanning, We have Jemimah, who has done tremendously well. She is from Mumbai, so playing in Mumbai is going to be a big advantage for her. And then Shafali, she has just won the U-19 World Cup. She plays for the women's main team as well. She is from the Delhi NCR region, being from Haryana, so it helps us with our fans as well.""We are looking for all-rounders now. We're looking for bowlers. We're looking to obviously make the squad. When we came into the auction, we had a very clear-cut strategy that we were going to build a very competitive squad of 15. We didn't want star players; we wanted a very good squad so that the coach can have a very tough choice in selecting the 11. And that is going to be the endeavour (for the second half)," he added.Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals' co-owner GM Ruchir expressed, "We are very happy with the buys. We have got great players like Jemimah, and Shafali. Our go-to player was Kapp, we have got her. Now we want to focus more on youngsters, who could be backup options. Mainly we are sorted with our core of Indian players, we are concentrating more on the bowlers as well. It is going to be a great platform for all the women youngsters. As we have seen in the men's team, we have always backed youngsters and we are going to do the same here as well."The first buy of the WPL 2023 auction for Delhi Capitals was star India batter Jemimah Rodrigues, who was acquired for INR 2.2 crore.
