IPL teams completed their retention lists on Sunday, cutting ties with a number of players in front of the much awaited mini-auction. Some teams made the brave choice to cut key players off their squads, while others chose to maintain their core groups. Excitedness and anticipation are building for the IPL 2024 auction as the cricket community gets ready. This auction, which is scheduled to take place in Dubai on December 19, seems to be an exciting occasion when teams will actively battle to add talented players to bolster their rosters.
Shardul Thakur, who is well-known for his right-arm medium-fast bowling, has established himself as a useful member of his teams in the IPL. He has shown that he can produce pace and offer economical bowling periods in addition to picking up wickets. Shardul was released by Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday after being traded from Delhi Capitals to KKR in the previous edition.
In the ODI World Cup 2023, Australian captain Pat Cummins has won praise from all around the world for his outstanding leadership and cricketing exploits. Because of his exceptional bat and bowling skills, he has drawn interest from teams all around the world.
Mitchell Starc, the fast bowler from Australia, has said that he will be taking part in the forthcoming IPL 2024 auction. He is a possible target for RCB because of his reputation for creating movement with new ball and executing Yorkers in death overs.
The worth of Travis Head, the hero of the 2023 World Cup victory, increased after his outstanding 137-run performance against India in the final. With so many teams looking for dynamic openers, this outstanding performance will probably drive up the bidding because of the huge demand for him.
Rachin Ravindra had a stellar campaign during the 2023 ODI World Cup and he can surely fetch a big amount in the auction if he puts his name in the auction.
