Profile
Son of former New Zealand rugby coach John Mitchell, Daryll is an all-rounder who bowls medium pace. Having made his First-class debut in the 2011-12 season, it didn't take long for the Northern Districts man to make an impression across formats. His adaptability has been the key factor in his success. Growing up in a sports background helped Daryl to hone in the discipline from the formative years and he credits his dad for the same.

Predominantly a middle order batsman, Mitchell's game revolves around a solid base that expands with the repertoire of strokes as his innings builds. His bowling isn't threatening and can go for runs at times but also has the knack of picking up wickets. The 2018-19 season seemed to be a breakthrough phase for him as consistent performances in the domestic circuit, especially in the Super Smash earned him his maiden national call up during the home T20Is against India in February 2019.
