In a commanding close to their first-ever Delhi Premier League (DPL) auction, Outer Delhi Warriors have finalised a formidable 25-player squad for Season 2 of the Delhi Premier League T20. With a blend of IPL pedigree, emerging Delhi stars, and strategic auction buys, the franchise has made its presence felt ahead of its debut campaign. Headlining their auction success is the Rs. 19 lakh buy of 25-year-old all-rounder Harsh Tyagi, one of Delhi's top young prospects. The Warriors also made key acquisitions including Indian leg-spinner Suyash Sharma (Rs. 15 lakh), wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Singh (Rs. 13.5 lahks), middle-order all-rounder Siddhant Sharma and fast bowler Anshuman Hooda (both for Rs. 12.5 lakh), and top-order batter Sanat Sangwan (Rs. 5 lakh), who returns after a solid Delhi Premier League T20 Season 1, as per a press release from DPL. The team had earlier announced T20 sensation Priyansh Arya as a marquee player, giving the Warriors a core of impact players with local roots and national ambitions. Rajeshree Shete Iyer, CEO of Outer Delhi Warriors and founder of Platinum One Media & Consulting, shared her thoughts after the final squad reveal: "We didn't just want a headline squad, we built a winning one. With experienced IPL names like Suyash and exciting all-rounders like Harsh and Siddhant, our squad has both power and purpose.

Alongside Anshuman Hooda, the duo is expected to form a fiery, fast-bowling partnership that could trouble any opposition.

Ltd., Sunil Aggarwal, added, "This is a squad that balances promise with performance. From big buys like Harsh to smart picks like Sanat, we've set the tone for the kind of cricket we want to play -- bold, local, and winning. The energy is different this season, and we're proud of this unit."
