Hence, David Willey can be a good option to install into the squad. Also, with the ouster of Shahrukh Khan, PBKS needs more seam all-rounders in their squad. Punjab can grab 8 more players in their team.

1. Delhi Capitals

Delhi Capitals is another team that can follow David Willey during the IPL 2024 auction. Delhi only has Mitchell Marsh in the seam all-rounder department. The Australia star showed a marvelous form last season.

However, the team needs a backup for him as Marsh can miss some games due to national duties. Moreover, DC also needs to manage his workload during the tournament. Hence, it will be a good idea to grab David Willey, who can play in the absence of Mitchell Marsh during IPL 2024.
