IPL 2024: Strongest Playing XI Of Uncapped Players
Top Orders batters
Speaking about openers, two players who have done justice to the spot are Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Abhishek Sharma and Delhi Capitals’ emerging batter Abhishek Porel. As openers, both have relentlessly attacked the bowlers and proven to be assets for their respective franchises. They deserve a place as openers in the Uncapped XI.
On one hand, Sharma, with his destructive batting, has scored 467 runs in 13 matches with an unbelievable strike rate of 209.42, whereas Porel, who has grabbed every opportunity he got, has scored 327 runs with a strike rate of 159.51.
Apart from the openers, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Riyan Parag, and Nitish Reddy also impressed everyone with their batting attributes.
Each of these three players has transformed their potential into results. They have the capability of forming partnerships and also possess the ability to charge the bowlers in the death overs. All three deserve a spot in the IPL 2024 uncapped XI.
Middle Order batters
Two players who have justified middle-order spots every single time are Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma. Both Punjab Kings batters have clinched every opportunity. Known for their destructive batting skills and ability to finish games, when speaking about finishers in the uncapped XI, they undoubtedly deserve a spot.
Bowlers
The pace trio of Harshit Rana, Yash Dayal, and Mayank Yadav, along with spinner Harpreet Brar, can provide a lot of diversity in the bowling attack. In IPL 2024, they worked wonders with the bowling. LSG’s Mayank Yadav took 7 wickets in just 4 games with an impressive economy of 7.
On the other hand, Harshit Rana and Yash Dayal also performed remarkably well. The bowling variations they provide are the main reasons they are featuring in this list. Meanwhile, Harpreet Brar has also made his mark as the lone spinner in the uncapped 11.
