Several top cricketers missed out on the opportunity in the last concluded edition of the IPL. With the IPL mega auction coming up, some big guns are expected to return to the franchise-based league. On that note, let us check out some big names who might be returning to play in IPL 2025.
Top players to return in IPL 2025
Ben Stokes
During IPL 2023, Ben Stokes was a part of the Chennai Super Kings. However, he could not play many matches that season and withdrew his name from the next season. Stokes is currently playing in The Hundred. He is also likely to participate in the upcoming edition of the SA20. As a result, Stokes might also participate in IPL 2025.
Sarfaraz Khan
Sarfaraz made his IPL debut in 2015 with the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). He caught attention with his unique batting style and played four seasons under the tutelage of Virat Kohli. Despite rumors linking him to the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Sarfaraz went unsold in the 2024 auction. He’ll be looking to bounce back in the upcoming IPL 2025.
Devon Conway
CSK opener, Devon Conway missed out on playing in the IPL 2024 owing to an injury. However, the left-handed batter is set to make a comeback in the upcoming edition. It remains to be seen if he will be retained by CSK or not.
