The Delhi-based franchise has the perfect mix of youth and experience as their core team includes Joginder Narwal, Chandran Ranjit, Ravinder Pahal, Meraj Sheykh and Naveen Kumar.

As an experienced left corner defender, Joginder had scored a total of 51 tackle points in 22 matches last season for the Krishan Kumar Hooda-led side.
