“It wasn’t an easy decision at all for us to let go of these players. They were all a crucial part of our very memorable inaugural season, and I wish them all the very best. We’ve got a solid squad in place, and will aim to make it more complete at the upcoming auction," said head coach Jonathan Batty.
"The franchise organised a couple of off-season camps over the last few months, which has allowed us as a coaching group to have a look at the available talent, and also assess the physical condition and skills of our existing players. We’re hoping for a successful auction going into the new season," said assistant coach Hemlata Kala.
Delhi Capitals reached the final of the inaugural WPL, losing to Mumbai Indians in the title clash.
Retained overseas players: Meg Lanning (capt), Jess Jonassen, Marizanne Kapp, Alice Capsey, Laura Harris.
Retained Indian players: Jemimah Rodrigues, Shafali Verma, Shikha Pandey, Poonam Yadav, Radha Yadav, Arundhati Reddy, Taniyaa Bhatia, Minnu Mani, Sneha Deepthi, Titas Sadhu.
