The IPL 2024 auction countdown has commenced, with teams and fans gearing up for likely rosters.

  1. Azmatullah Omarzai emerges as a rare find—a versatile player adept at middle-order batting with a strong strike rate and the ability to open the bowling with seam and swing. His impressive World Cup performance, scoring 353 runs at a 97 strike rate and taking 7 wickets, makes him a sought-after prospect. Teams like Chennai Super Kings, Rajasthan Royals, and Sunrisers Hyderabad are potential suitors.

  1. David Willey, despite being a retired England player, presents a valuable option with full availability for T20 cricket. His swing bowling and ability to contribute with the bat at No.8 make him an attractive choice. Teams in search of a lower-order finisher with bowling prowess, such as Rajasthan Royals, Gujarat Titans, or Delhi Capitals, could consider Willey.

  1. Josh Inglis, a key contributor to Australia’s World Cup triumph, showcased his T20 skills with a century off 47 balls in India. As a versatile middle-order batter and a dynamic wicketkeeper, he might be an unexpected yet impactful addition for teams like Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals, or Rajasthan Royals seeking a surprise element in their squad.
