ALEX CAREY (Delhi Capitals)

Australia’s next best prospect with gloves and already primed to take over from Tim Paine in Test matches as well, Alex Carey has been amazing for the Kangaroos for quite some time now. The 28-year-old has already played 29 ODIs and 25 T20Is for Australia and made 929 runs with four fifties in ODIs. In T20 cricket, he plays for Adelaide Strikers in BBL, while representing South Australia in domestic cricket.

Carey “putting a bit of pressure on Paine” for a slot in Australia’s Test team: Shane Warne

Carey is an exceptional wicketkeeper and a batsman capable of opening the innings and bat anywhere in top order. Though not a big hitter of the ball, he has shots in his arsenal to hit sixes and fours; Carey is also an exceptional player of spinners. Carey may not get many chances in Delhi Capitals with Rishabh Pant being the first-choice keeper, but if utilized as a batsman only,  he can contribute more to the team.
