Expected Playing XI:
KL Rahul (C), Quinton De Kock, Manish Pandey, Deepak Hooda, Krunal Pandya, Marcus Stoinis, Jason Holder, Krishnappa Gowtham, Avesh Khan, Mark Wood, Ankit Rajpoot.
General Thoughts: Good investment in Quinton De Kock. If Pooran went for 10.75 Cores. De Kock is a steal at 6.25 Crores. If Deepak Hooda can’t bat in the middle Krunal can take number 4. Krishnappa Gowtham is a better batter than Shabaz and hence he can be used to make the tail long. All in all, one of the better sides after the auction. No evident loopholes. Ravi Bishnoi is an X-Factor player. He can even win the purple cap.
