South African pacer Gerald Coetzee excelled during the ODI World Cup 2023 in India. He emerged as a significant purchase by Mumbai Indians for Rs 5 crore in IPL 2024 Auction. As a right-arm fast and swing bowler, his IPL debut in 2024 appears imminent.

Dilshan Madhushanka (MI)

Sri Lankan left-arm fast bowler Dilshan Madushanka was a standout performer for his team in the ODI World Cup. The express pacer was secured by the five-time IPL champs Mumbai Indians for Rs 4.60 crore. His inclusion strongly suggests an impending IPL debut in 2024.

This middle-order batsman is expected to make his IPL debut in 2024, becoming the most expensive uncapped player in the IPL 2024 Auction.

Rachin Ravindra (CSK)

Rachin Ravindra emerged as a valuable asset after scoring the most runs for his country in the World Cup while contributing with the ball as well. Chennai Super Kings acquired him for Rs 1.80 crore, positioning him for a likely IPL debut in 2024 under MS Dhoni’s leadership.
