IPL 2022 Mega Auction: With no RTM option, RR, CSK, MI, PBKS, SRH, KKR, RCB, DC face stiff challenge to retain these MVPs- check out
CSK
Faf du Plessis & Dwayne Bravo
Opener Faf du Plessis & Dwayne Bravo have been vital cogs of Chennai Super Kings. While Faf du Plessis is key to the batting department, Dwayne Bravo is a perfect death bowler with the ability to contribute with the bat and play match-winning innings.
Du Plessis scored 633, 449 and 396 in last three editions of IPL. He comes with 100 matches experience while Bravo has played 151 matches with 167 wickets & 1500+ runs.
DC
Shikhar Dhawan
India & Delhi Capitals opener Shikhar Dhawan is at his consistent best. He has slammed 2000+ runs in the last 4 IPL editions. He scored 587, 618, 521 and 497 runs in last 4 seasons.
RCB
Devdutt Padikkal
Heads turned when Royal Challengers Bangalore deciding against retaining Devdutt Padikkal at retentions. Now, they have the challenge to get him back at the auction table. The left-handed Karnataka batsman had amassed 400+ runs in his first two seasons.
KKR
Dinesh Karthik
Dinesh Karthik might have been out of form for the past few seasons but remains the best wicket-keeper in IPL after MS Dhoni. Franchises will be keen to get his services after his impressive performances for Tamil Nadu in Vijay Hazare Trophy. Having said that, Karthik won’t fetch too big amount. He has played 213 matches in IPL with 4000+ runs.
MI
Trent Boult, Ishan Kishan
Left-arm specialist Trent Boult and swashbuckling batsman Ishan Kishan will cost big if Mumbai Indians want to retain their services. The duo is key behind MI’s record titles in IPL. While Kishan is key as an opener, Boult is a formidable pacer and best support for Jasprit Bumrah. Meanwhile, Quinton de Kock’s reunion can also be a big challenge for Mukesh Ambani & Co.
SRH
Jonny Bairstow
One of the most attacking openers in world cricket, Jonny Bairstow can be a serious threat to the opposition. He can change the context of the game as long as he stays at the crease. He has already proved his worth for the Orange army. He has scored 1000+ runs in just 28 matches at a strike rate of 142+.
PBKS
Shahrukh Khan
Punjab Kings’s decision not to retain Shahrukh Khan might cost them at auction. The attacking batsman showed he is someone that the franchise could have invested to get a return over the next IPL cycle. The right-hander is in terrific form in the domestic circuit.
RR
Chetan Sakariya & Kartik Tyagi
Chetan Sakariya and Kartik Tyagi were the finds of the season for Rajasthan Royals. Sakariya showcased his game to play for India while Tyagi defended just 4 runs against Punjab.
