All-rounders are a current need in any form of cricket, but when it comes to T20 cricket, their value is always higher, as they provide stability with both the bat and the ball. We have seen many all-rounders shine in the Indian Premier League, who came and snatched the spotlight. A prime example is Hardik Pandya, who emerged as the best all-rounder for India after showcasing his skills for Mumbai Indians. This time, many teams that went to the mega auction have purchased several all-rounders, as they understand their value. However, there are three teams that managed to get some impressive names as far as picking all-rounders is concerned. See all these quality teams who have the best all-rounders in the mix for IPL 2025.
Punjab Kings
Now, if we look at one team that surprised everyone before the auction by retaining only two uncapped players, but when they went to the IPL 2025 Mega Auction, they bought some serious all-rounders. Marcus Stoinis, who is currently one of the most popular all-rounders in the current circuit, is part of the team, along with Glenn Maxwell. They also have players like Azmatullah Omarzai, Marco Jansen, and Aaron Hardie. With such a solid lineup, PBKS surely has some great all-round options.
Gujarat Titans
The IPL 2022 winners are also not behind, as they have a solid pack of impressive all-rounders, like Rashid Khan. In recent times, Glenn Phillips has been doing wonders with both the bat, ball, and in the field. Not to forget, they also have Gerald Coetzee and Washington Sundar, who can chip in with the bat when needed. We can surely expect GT to do an impressive job once again, just like they did in the past.
Sunrisers Hyderabad
SRH has assembled a squad of 20 players, including some of the biggest batters like Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma. But apart from them, there’s nothing better than having players like Nitesh Reddy, Pat Cummins, Rahil Chahal, and Kamindu Mendis, who are always ready to perform with both bat and ball. Among all the ten teams, SRH looks strong on paper, and fans will surely hope that this season, the team can turn things around, especially after last season’s near-clinching of the IPL trophy, where they finished as runners-up.
