IMG SRC: RCB Official Website </figcaption></figure>



<p>Harshal Patel has become a different player ever since shifting to the north of India in the domestic circuit. His slower ones are difficult to pick. His off-cutters too are well-disguised. Back in the day, Harshal played for RCB. He has batting skills as well. <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/bhuvneshwar-kumar-is-not-100-per-cent-fit-in-the-ipl-sanjay-manjrekar/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">Bhuvneshwar Kumar</a> on the other hand is a veteran who has a point to prove. His game has been waning and this IPL is crucial for him to maintain his place in the national team. Both the players are certainly one of the top 10 Indian Players in the IPL Mega Auction and fall in the 2 Crore Category.?</p>



<h2 id="9-avesh-khan-prasidh-krishna-is-one-of-the-top-10-indian-players">9) Avesh Khan/ Prasidh Krishna is one of the top 10 Indian Players:&nbsp;</h2>

Dhawan is certainly on the list of the top 10 Indian Players in the mega auction.?</p>



<h2 id="7-rahul-chahar">7) Rahul Chahar:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>It is a general trend that bowlers tend to earn more money in the auction. Based on these lines the toppers in this list are bowlers. Rahul Chahar, the leg-spin maestro from Rajasthan has impressed all of us. He has a height that compliments his action very well. The height also gives him added bounce and drift. Chahar beats the batsmen in the air. With Chahar falling out of favor in the national team, this IPL will mean a lot to him as he has to make a mark. ?</p>



<h2 id="6-mohammed-shami-is-one-of-the-top-10-indian-players">6) Mohammed Shami is one of the top 10 Indian Players:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Mohammed Shami has become a different breed after fighting personal demons back in 2018. He is one of the most improved bowlers in the last 5 years.

This makes him an optimum choice for the franchises. His experience improves his portfolio.?</p>

<p>Shardul Thakur, the crisis man of Indian Cricket for the last year will earn a bag full of cash at the auction! Thakur has to be one of the top 10 Indian Players. With the bat in hand, Thakur has become a reliable number 7 for the Indian National team. The man also has a knack for picking wickets. Whenever a partnership is building, Virat just threw the ball to Shardul and he delivered! The ?Man with the Golden Arm?, Thakur is worth every penny spent. He is often criticized for his fitness but the champion player has been working on it.?</p>



<h2 id="4-yuzvendra-chahal">4) Yuzvendra Chahal:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Yuzvendra Chahal, the spin wizard will earn his own share of money at the TATA IPL 2022 Mega Auction. The Haryana prodigy is India?s most successful T20I bowler. More than that Yuzvendra is a daring bowler who isn?t afraid of going for runs. Chahal is a spinner who attacks the batsmen. He has the ability to beat the batsmen in the air and with flight. ?</p>

<p>Deepak Chahar can bowl 3 excellent overs in the powerplay and 1 in the death. He can also tonk the ball for a few blows in the death overs. Deepak Chahar is a complete package. Hailing from humble backgrounds in Rajasthan, the player has exquisite talent and control over the ball. He is someone like a young Bhuvi but with more pace. His line and length are always on the mark. Under the mentorship of MSD, the pacer has become an artist. ?</p>

<p>Ishan Kishan provides 3 good points for his selection. Kishan is young and can take up leadership roles in the future. He opens the batting and trashes the bowlers in his Jayasuriya-like style of play. Kishan also keeps wickets and is reliable behind the stumps. All of this makes him a certain pick in the top 10 Indian Players in the IPL Mega Auction. He has played for Gujarat Lions and Mumbai Indians. Kishan has also taken up leadership roles in his domestic team Jharkhand and this improves his case. Franchises can also look at him as a possible investment for captaincy.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="honorable-mention">Honorable Mention:&nbsp;</h2>



<ul><li>1) Devdutt Padikkal?</li><li>2) Ravichandran Ashwin?</li><li>3) Krunal Pandya?</li></ul>

<p>Shreyas Iyer, the Mumbai batsman is in the correct age and base price bracket. Ever since making his debut as an opener for the Delhi Daredevils, Shreyas has improved his game. After taking the captaincy mid-season in 2018 from Gautam Gambhir, Iyer has had the back of the Delhi Capitals. Of the two seasons that Iyer had taken captaincy, Delhi qualified for the playoffs in both and played the final in 1. Iyer is a gun-fielder and can float in the batting order. From opening to number 5, Iyer can bat anywhere as we have seen in the past. Several teams looking for a captaincy candidate with go guns-blazing for him. RCB, KKR, and Punjab Kings are the likely franchises. ?</p>

<strong>Top 10 Indian Players to Earn Big in TATA IPL 2022 Mega Auction.</strong>&nbsp;

top-10-indian-players-to-earn-big-in-tata-ipl-2022-mega-auction

<p>Over the years the IPL has become a money-ball game for several overseas players. We have seen many foreign players taking home a truckload of money. Chris Morris happens to be the most expensive player ever in an IPL Auction at a whopping 16.25 Crore Indian Rupees. Second, in line is Pat Cummins who was bought at 16 Crores. These numbers at times sound unreal and make our jaws drop! <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/glenn-maxwell-tested-covid-positive-sent-into-isolation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Glenn Maxwell</a> with 11 Crores and Rashid Khan with 15! IPL is that casino for players who never run outta money and where they give their fullest and add maximum value to the sport! Here is a look at the top 10 overseas players in TATA IPL 2022 Mega Auction:?</p>



<h2 id="10-tabraiz-shamsi-adil-rashid">10) Tabraiz Shamsi/ Adil Rashid:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>India is a land of spinners. Year after year we have seen ?Spin is the King?. Yuzvendra Chahal, Harbhajan Singh, Rashid Khan, and Ravi Ashwin are some names that have dominated the IPL for quite some time. Tabraiz Shamsi, the Protea Chinaman will be in demand big time. The magician from <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/tata-ipl-2022-to-be-held-in-south-africa-csa-sends-proposal-to-bcci/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">South Africa </a>has played all around the globe and this adds experience to his resume. Adil Rashid on the other hand was an integral part of the England team that won the 2019 World Cup. Rashid beats the batsmen in the air and can outfox the batsmen. Rashid has played on Indian wickets and he can add value to Indian youngsters.?</p>



<h2 id="9-lockie-ferguson-is-one-of-the-top-10-overseas-players">9) Lockie Ferguson is one of the top 10 overseas players:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-fq5-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83309" /><figcaption>The man with the iconic mustache, meet Lockie Ferguson. IMG SRC: Indian Express.</figcaption></figure>



<p>The underdog from New Zealand will earn a big paycheque this time. With his signature mustache, Lockie will make a mark on this IPL Auction. He is certainly one of the top 10 overseas players in the IPL auction. This Kiwi has a laser-guided yorker at a pace of 145+ kmph. He has an economy of 8.2 in the death overs. Lockie Ferguson too plays freelance cricket and has played in every country. A wicket like Ahmedabad or Dharmshala can do wonders for him as they have pace and bounce on offer. ?</p>



<h2 id="8-shimron-hetmeyer-dawid-malan">8) Shimron Hetmeyer/ Dawid Malan:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-fq4-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83308" /><figcaption>Malan can effectively play spin bowlers as well. IMG SRC: InsideSport</figcaption></figure>



<p>Shimron Hetmeyer and Dawid Malan aren?t like to like options. But these two are tied at position 8! Shimron bats lower down the order. He was associated with the Delhi Capitals for 2 seasons and made sure they qualified for both for the playoffs?each time. When Hetmeyer plays he rules the game! He has a Yuvrajesque game. Dawid Malan on the other hand can bat at top of the order. He is highly rated by the ICC. Malan doesn?t play freelance so many teams are unaware of his style of play. He is an exquisite stroke maker. Both these lefty batsmen are on the list of top 10 overseas players.?</p>



<h2 id="7-mitchell-marsh-is-one-of-the-top-10-overseas-players">7) Mitchell Marsh is one of the top 10 overseas players:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Coming from the back of an amazing season with the Australian national team and Perth Scorchers, Mitchell Marsh will add value to any team. He bats at number 4 and gives you 2 to 3 reliable overs. The younger Marsh was the ?Man of the Match? in the ICC T20 World Cup final. Marsh has worked on his batting abilities. He has a textbook style of play. He takes his time to settle down and then blasts the bowlers. &nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="6-rassie-van-der-dussen">6) Rassie Van Der Dussen:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Rassie Van Der Dussen has made it to the list after his performance against India. Dussen is an optimum pick for any team looking for someone to move the game. In the middle-overs when the game becomes dry, Rassie can spice things up. One can never forget his innings against the Englishmen in the ICC T20 World Cup. He smashed the likes of Wood, Jordan, and Rashid everywhere. Van Der Dussen is in his early thirties which means that he is carrying a truck-load of experience. ?</p>



<h2 id="5-quinton-de-kock-is-one-of-the-top-10-overseas-players">5) Quinton De Kock is one of the top 10 overseas players:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-fq3-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83310" /><figcaption>De Kock is a senior player from the Prote squad. IMG SRC: InsideSport</figcaption></figure>



<p>Quinny makes it to the list because of his attacking style and wicket-keeping skills. De Kock is a strong individual and can be a part of the leadership group. Quinton has been a part of the IPL since 2013. His game hasn?t changed much since he was playing for Highveld Lions, however, he has gained a lot of experience. De Kock has worked with the likes of Robin Singh and Gary Kirsten. A veteran in the T20 format, his game sense is top-notch. De Kock will add value to the Indian youngsters. It is expected that he will go for well over 5 Crore Indian Rupees. He is certainly one of the top 10 overseas players.?</p>



<h2 id="4-jonny-bairstow">4) Jonny Bairstow:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Jonny Bairstow has been ruling world cricket since 2019. The bashing that he gave Kuldeep Yadav at Birmingham in 2019 has kept Kuldeep out of the side since then. His Jayasuriyaesque style of play is a treat to watch. Bairstow is a top ambassador of the <a href="https://sportsdanka.com/cricket/how-england-turned-their-white-ball-cricket-team-into-a-dominant-force/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">?Slam Bang?</a> approach of England Cricket. He is a technically sound batsman. He averages 35+ at a strike rate of 140! Jonny can form a good pair with someone like Rohit or Virat at the top. As both the other players take their time to settle in. ?</p>



<h2 id="3-pat-cummins-is-one-of-the-top-10-overseas-players">3) Pat Cummins is one of the top 10 overseas players:?</h2>

https://twitter.com/CricketAus/status/1482680332235448325
</div></figure>



<p>It is a general trend that bowlers are sold at a higher price than batsmen. Hence Pat Cummins is so highly rated in the list of top 10 overseas players. Cummins, last time took home 16 Crore Indian Rupees. What has changed since then is that he has become the leader of the Australian team. Cummins led Australia to a thumping 4-0 Ashes win over England. He has an economy of 8.23. His bouncer makes the batsmen smell the leather. His yorker crushes the toes. All in all, Cummins is a complete package. Young Indian bowlers will get a lot of grooming from this individual. The Leadership group of a team can be improved by considering his opinions.?</p>



<h2 id="2-kagiso-rabada">2) Kagiso Rabada:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Kagiso Rabada is currently one of the top fast bowlers in the world. His smooth run-up and perfect action make sure he generates express pace. Ever since his debut in 2017, his pace hasn?t dropped! He bowls well over 140 kmph. Kagiso Rabada made Andre Russell fall with his precise yorkers! This incident defines the genius of this legend. Kagiso is riding high on confidence after a series victory against India. Rabada doesn?t think twice before having banter on the field and this shows his strong personality. He is a thinking bowler with an economy of 8.21. ?</p>



<h2 id="1-david-warner">1) David Warner:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/Sportskeeda/status/1486920210447699973
</div><figcaption>As per the latest reports, the leadership section for Warner seems empty!</figcaption></figure>



<p>David Warner left the IPL 2021 with a sour taste in his mouth after falling out with SRH. SRH might have regretted their decisions after Warner became ?Man of the Series? in the ICC T20 World Cup 2021. Warner single-handedly won two games for the Australians. Season after season, David has tonked the bowlers. In the 2016 season, the show was stolen by Virat and his 973 runs but David managed to get 850+ runs too! He led SRH to victory in that season. He averages 42 with a strike rate of 140!&nbsp;</p>

Yuvraj bagged a contract of 16 Crore Indian Rupees in the IPL Auction 2015. Before that Yuvraj was playing for RCB. He scored two fifties throughout the tournament and wasn?t able to satisfy the price tag. Yuvraj, back then, was a favorite among the franchises due to the style and class that he had.</p>



<h2 id="15-5-crore-indian-rupees-pat-cummins-ipl-auction-2020">15.5 Crore Indian Rupees: Pat Cummins. IPL Auction 2020:</h2>



<p>Pat Cummins became the third most expensive player in the IPL Auction 2020 when KKR bought him for 15.5 Cr. Cummins was coming from a good phase in his red-ball career. Cummins also gives a good and dependable batting option at number 7 and hence he earned more. <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/the-biggest-burden-for-kl-rahul-is-to-perform-says-gautam-gambhir/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gautam Gambhir</a> severely criticized this decision of KKR to break the bank for one player only.</p>



<h2 id="15-crore-indian-rupees-kyle-jamieson-ipl-auction-2021-is-one-of-the-most-expensive-players">15 Crore Indian Rupees: Kyle Jamieson. IPL Auction 2021 is One of the Most Expensive Players:</h2>



<p>Kyle Jamieson, the 6-feet+ monster bagged a big contract in the IPL 2021 Auction. The Auction saw several franchises break the bank. This auction had a trend of high prices for above-average players as the demand was more and supply was less. Jamieson had impressed everyone with his white-ball skills and red-ball skills in the recently concluded India series. He had made a mark in the eyes of the RCB scouts. RCB went after him and begged him for the jaw-dropping amount.</p>



<h2 id="14-5-crore-indian-rupees-ben-stokes-ipl-auction-2017">14.5 Crore Indian Rupees. Ben Stokes. IPL Auction 2017:</h2>

<p>The IPL is an ocean of opportunities for whoever gets a game in the league. With lakhs of eyeballs on you, you have a great chance of making a mark. You can even impress the national selectors and get a chance in the Indian Cricket team. Over the years, several players have grabbed this opportunity. <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/jasprit-bumrah-biography-personal-life-net-worth-all-you-need-to-know/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jasprit Bumrah</a>, Venkatesh Iyer, Rohit Sharma, and many more have made a mark through the IPL. Domestic players also benefit a lot from the IPL. With the IPL now being a 10-team tournament, many domestic players are bound to get a chance, so who are the top 10 domestic players:</p>



<h2 id="10-ks-bharat-is-one-of-the-top-domestic-players">10. KS Bharat is one of the top domestic players:</h2>



<p>Playing under the shadow of<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/bcci-central-contracts-2022-rishabh-pant-kl-rahul-likely-to-get-grade-a-contract/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow"> Rishabh Pant</a>, KS Bharat has been dominating, the domestic circuit for 3 years. With the waning career of Wriddhiman Saha giving him opportunities, the 10-team IPL will be ideal. Bharat is exceptional in his wicket-keeping skills. He showed us what he has with the bat after hitting a last-ball six to win the game against the Delhi Capitals. With teams looking for an Indian wicket-keeping option, Bharat may get a permanent spot.</p>



<h2 id="9-mayank-markande-is-one-of-the-top-domestic-players">9. Mayank Markande is one of the top domestic players:</h2>



<p>After bursting on the scene in the 2018 IPL, Mayank Markande has been out of the limelight. He played in the 2019 West Indies series but since then has vanished in thin air. Markande has been traded from one side to another. From Mumbai Indians to Delhi Capitals and from them to the Rajasthan Royals. He hasn?t got many opportunities. Rahul Tewatia and Riyan Parag have backed ahead of him. This just shows how tough the competition is and how limited the chances are. Markande will make sure to leave an impression as there is a possibility that he may get a good chance this season.</p>



<h2 id="8-vijay-shankar">8. Vijay Shankar:</h2>



<p>Vijay Shankar has been out of favor after getting injured in the 2019 ODI World Cup in England. He was India?s top choice number 4 batsman back then. Since then, the opportunities have dried up and the performance has been decent. Ever since becoming the captain of the Tamil Nadu domestic team, Vijay Shankar has got his career back in place. The 10-team IPL provides him a good chance to make a marking impression once again. He is one of the top domestic players.</p>



<h2 id="7-shreyas-gopal">7. Shreyas Gopal:</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-h5-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83550" /><figcaption>IMG SRC: myKhel</figcaption></figure>



<p>Shreyas Gopal, the tall and quick leg spinner from Karnataka has had the same fate as that of Mayank Markande. Players like Rahul Tewatia and Riyan Parag have been backed which has dried up his chances. With two new teams looking for top Indian leg spinners, Shreyas is certain to go big! Not to forget his spell against RCB, where he got the wickets of Kohli and ABD!</p>



<h2 id="6-ishant-sharma-is-one-of-the-top-domestic-players">6. Ishant Sharma is one of the top domestic players:</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-h3-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83551" /><figcaption>Ishant is a veteran of the game and has a truck-load of experience. IMG SRC: iplt20.com</figcaption></figure>



<p>A veteran of the game, Ishant Sharma was the first million-dollar kid in the IPL. He was bought for over a million dollars by the Kolkata Knight Riders. Since then, his white-ball career has been? blow-hot and blow-cold?. Ishant is a strong hit the deck bowler and brings the ball into the right-hander. Ishant has been there and done all of that! Franchises can invest in him as he can also work to groom a few young Indian pacers.</p>



<h2 id="5-umesh-yadav">5. Umesh Yadav:</h2>



<p>Umesh Yadav is one genuinely quick Indian bowler. He is the first bowler to clock 145+ kmph consistently. His pace hasn?t dropped since the beginning and that shows how well he has maintained his fitness. Umesh can give any franchise 3 good overs in the powerplay. His death bowling is always under scrutiny but Umesh has worked on it too. With franchises looking for quick Indian bowlers who can get extra bounce Umesh is an Ideal choice. A pitch like Mumbai, Dharmshala, or Ahmedabad will suit him the best.</p>



<h2 id="4-navdeep-saini-is-one-of-the-top-domestic-players">4. Navdeep Saini is one of the top domestic players:</h2>



<p>Navdeep Saini and his chances are blown away by the phenomenon named Mohammad Siraj. Saini will however be looking for a franchise that will give him great opportunities. With two new teams and with plenty of slots, Navdeep is one of the top domestic players. He is unrealistically super-quick and can clock up to 150kmph. If Saini gets his line right he can cause big trouble.</p>



<h2 id="3-ajinkya-rahane">3. Ajinkya Rahane:</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-h2-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83552" /><figcaption>Jinx can also be considered for captaincy as he had an exceptional SMAT 2021. IMG SRC: CricketAdda</figcaption></figure>



<p>After warming the bench at Delhi Capitals for two seasons straight, it's about time Ajinkya Rahane gets his due. The experienced campaigner can be picked by any team and be put in the leadership group. A place like Chennai will work well as they invest in the experience. Mumbai can also go for Jinx as he is the local boy. Ajinkya had an amazing SMAT 2021 too which adds the cherry on the cake. He also is one of the top domestic players in the IPL Auction and will want to make a comeback to the white-ball formats.</p>



<h2 id="2-deepak-hooda-is-one-of-the-top-domestic-players">2. Deepak Hooda is one of the top domestic players:</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-h4-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83553" /><figcaption>IMG SRC: Times Of India</figcaption></figure>



<p>Deepak Hooda will be awaiting this season the most. Punjab Kings made effective use of his abilities when they allowed him to bat at 4 or 5. This is a position that suits Deepak. He is a bank of 2 to 3 overs too. He comes in quickly and bowls those economic middle overs. After making his national team debut his stocks have risen. He scored a 109 in the Vijay Hazare Trophy and was the second-highest run-getter in SMAT 2021.</p>



<h2 id="1-kuldeep-yadav">1.Kuldeep Yadav:</h2>



<p>It is high time that Kuldeep Yadav gets his due. After becoming a scapegoat of the failure of Indian batting as said by several analysts, Kuldeep Yadav will be waiting to enter the field. Yadav has gone out of favor of KKR but he still has the skill and grit. A hard-working player, Kuldeep will benefit the most in this IPL Mega Auction. He won?t be warming the bench certainly, which was the case last season. Kuldeep Yadav?s time of redemption is here!</p>

top-10-domestic-players-who-will-benefit-from-10-team-ipl

<p>The TATA IPL Mega Auction is set to take place on the 12<sup>th</sup> and 13<sup>th</sup> of February in Bangalore. The management of all the 10 teams will be looking to win this war before the actual battlefield is entered. Over the years there are many players for whom the teams have had literal bidding wars. MS Dhoni in the first season and Chris Morris in IPL 2021! So, over the years which are the top 5 bidding wars in the history of the TATA IPL Auction:&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="5-chris-morris-rr-and-rcb-bidding-war-in-2021">5. Chris Morris, RR and RCB Bidding War in 2021:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Chris Morris, the all-rounder from South Africa started a bidding war in the last auction. Morris was sold for the highest bidding price ever at 16.25 Crore Indian rupees. Many of the cricket analysts did not fancy this move of the Rajasthan Royals. The bidding war for Chris was started by Mumbai Indians who were in it till 11 Crores but further Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore took control. RCB looked adamant but eventually stopped bidding at 16.25 Crores.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="4-varun-chakravarthy-kxip-and-kkr-in-2019">4. Varun Chakravarthy, KXIP and KKR in 2019:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-fu2-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83599" width="933" height="699" /><figcaption>KKR got Varun in the 2020 IPL Auction after failing in the 2019 Auction. IMG SRC: Times of India.</figcaption></figure>



<p>Varun Chakravarthy came in the 2019 IPL Auction with a very big name. He had dominated the TNPL and was in the eyes of several scouts. The bidding war took place between KXIP and Kolkata Knight Riders. He started at the base price of 50 lakhs and went for 8.4 Crore Indian rupees. Again, the Punjab Kings didn?t get the value for their money as Varun was played for only a few games.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="3-pat-cummins-dd-and-kkr-in-2019">3. Pat Cummins, DD and KKR in 2019:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-fu3-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83600" /><figcaption>Pat Cummins could justify the big price tag attached to his name. And that has been the case over the years. IMG SRC: Circle of Cricket.</figcaption></figure>



<p>Pat Cummins become another highly overrated commodity during the 2019 IPL Auction. He was bought by the KKR franchise for 15. 5 Crore Indian Rupees. The bidding war was majorly between Delhi Daredevils and Kolkata Knight Riders. Delhi was the place where Cummins was playing initially. Gautam Gambhir, once an integral part of the KKR leadership group, heavily criticized this move of the franchise. He went on to say, ?You could have got Hazlewood for 2 Crores and he would have done a better job.?&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="2-kieron-pollard-chennai-super-kings-and-mumbai-indians-bidding-war-in-2010">2. Kieron Pollard, Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians Bidding War in 2010:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Kieron Pollard and the bidding war for him was so fierce that a tie-breaker had to be announced! One can never forget ow Mumbai and Chennai locked horns to get this big man from Trinidad. In 2010, Polly earned 4.8 Crores and was the biggest earner alongside Shane Bond. Mumbai and Chennai both secretly put their bid in an envelope which was then opened by the auctioneer. Mumbai came out winners and got Polly, the rest is history.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="1-ms-dhoni-all-team-bidding-war-in-2008-ipl-auction">1.MS Dhoni, All team Bidding War in 2008 IPL Auction:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-fu1-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-83601" /><figcaption>This is the selling sheet of the first-ever IPL Auction. IMG SRC: Quora.</figcaption></figure>



<p>It never happens that all teams bid for one player. But this has certainly happened in the 2008 IPL Auction. The first-ever auction was the only auction in which MS Dhoni was on the player's list. Since then, he was never available. <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/mumbai-indians-mi-retained-and-released-players-list-in-ipl-2022-mega-auction/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mumbai</a> and Chennai broke the bank.

ipl-2022-mega-auction-purse-remaining-for-each-team-after-five-rounds-on-day-2

<p>After a two-day long process in Bengaluru, the IPL 2022 Mega Auction was done. All the teams look settled. The IPL has such a unique format that 4 overseas players are allowed to play in each team. Every team is always looking to make the most of the presence of these overseas players. From Bazz McCullum, Chris Gayle, Dwayne Bravo, and Pollard to Adam Zampa, and Wanindu Hasranga overseas players are always in-demand. Here is a look at the 4 overseas players that every franchise will select from the available team:&nbsp;</p>



<h2 id="gujarat-titans-4-overseas-players-in-ipl-2022">Gujarat Titans 4 Overseas Players in IPL 2022:?</h2>



<ol><li>Jason Roy: Jason Roy is the top opening option for Gujarat Titans. He will love the pace and bounce on offer at Ahmedabad. &nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="2"><li>David Miller: Miller is an experienced player. On his day, if it is in his arc, it goes out of the park. He will add balance to the middle-order.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Rashid Khan: Rashid Khan needs no explanation. The best spinner in the world is certain to play every game.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Lockie Ferguson: This Kiwi paceman will be a value addition to the team. Batsmen need to protect their toes as Lockie smashes them in the death overs.?</li></ol>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-gd2-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86019" width="950" height="534" /><figcaption>Finally an auction that justified the price of this man with the iconic mustache. IMG SRC: Time of India.</figcaption></figure>



<h2 id="chennai-super-kings-4-overseas-players-in-ipl-2022">Chennai Super Kings 4 Overseas Players in IPL 2022:?</h2>



<ol><li>Devon Conway: Faf Du Plessis is missing and hence Devon Conway becomes an optimum choice for the Super Kings.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="2"><li>Moeen Ali: ?Brother Mo? has been doing an exceptional job while batting at number 3 or 4 so why to fix something that is not broken.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Dwayne Bravo: Bravo is the face of the Chennai Super Kings since 2011. His association with the team will be forever and ever. &nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Adam Milne: MSD likes to have a swing bowler in his team. Deepak Chahar is the top choice but Adam will be ideal to compliment him. &nbsp;</li></ol>



<h2 id="punjab-kings">Punjab Kings:&nbsp;</h2>



<ol><li>Jonny Bairstow: Jonny makes a good choice for a number 3 batter. He is explosive and can take the charge to the bowlers in case of a collapse.?</li></ol>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-gd1-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86017" /><figcaption>Liam Livingstone will have a lot to prove after associating the big price tag with him. IMG SRC: SportsRush.</figcaption></figure>



<ol start="2"><li>Liam Livingstone: Punjab Kings have invested in this volatile player. Liam comes with a big name associated him after tonkng every bowler across the globe. &nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Odean Smith: Odean Smith looks like Pollard but with more conviction in his bowling. Odean is an ideal powerful finisher and can complement Shahrukh very well.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Kagiso Rabada: Kagiso Rabada, need no introduction, one of the best bowlers directly finds his way in the team. &nbsp;</li></ol>



<h2 id="royal-challengers-bangalore-4-overseas-players-in-ipl-2022">Royal Challengers Bangalore 4 Overseas Players in IPL 2022:?</h2>



<ol><li>Faf Du Plessis: The possible captaincy candidate and an explosive opener, Faf Du Plessis was always in the team.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="2"><li>Glenn Maxwell: Maxwell was retained and had a good outing at number 4 with RCB. He will keep giving his services to the team.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Wanindu Hasaranga: After breaking the bank for this pretty average player, RCB are now bound to play him in the first 7 games.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Josh Hazlewood: Josh Hazlewood would be leading the pace attack of RCB alongside, Harshal Patel and Mohammad Siraj. &nbsp;</li></ol>



<h2 id="lucknow-super-giants">Lucknow Super Giants:&nbsp;</h2>



<ol><li>Quinton De Kock: Quinton de Kock at 6.25 Crores was an absolute steal made by Lucknow Super Giants. He will open the batting alongside KL Rahul.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/02/cricket-gd3-min.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-86018" /><figcaption>An integral part of the World Cup-winning team, Mark Wood will add a lot of value to the inexperienced Avesh Khan. IMG SRC: SportsRush.</figcaption></figure>



<ol start="2"><li>Marcus Stoinis: Picked in the draft, Marcus Stoinis will provide the much-needed finishers role. He will give at least 2 overs as well.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Jason Holder: One of the top all-rounders in contention, Jason Holder will provide balance to this team. He can bat number 7.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Mark Wood: Mark Wood brings the express pace. He will form a good partnership with Avesh Khan. His experience will add a lot of value to Avesh. &nbsp;</li></ol>



<h2 id="mumbai-indians-4-overseas-players-in-ipl-2022">Mumbai Indians 4 Overseas Players in IPL 2022:?</h2>



<ol><li>Kieron Pollard: Polly is the face of the Mumbai Indians and hence is bound to play every game in which he is fit.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="2"><li>Tim David: 8.25 Crores are given to this exquisite Singaporean. Now MI are bound to play him in at least 7 games. He is another volatile player. Tim either makes it or breaks it.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Daniel Sams: Mumbai will be looking for someone who can bat at 7 or 8 and Daniel Sams is the ideal choice for that position. He brings the swinging left-arm option as well.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Tymal Mills/Riley Meredith: For express pace, one of the two bowlers will be played.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<h2 id="delhi-capitals">Delhi Capitals:&nbsp;</h2>



<ol><li>David Warner: David Waner is a hungry lion. He will be keen on making a comeback to the Delhi capitals.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="2"><li>Mitchell Marsh: Mitchell Marsh has taken his game to whole another level. Marsh is exceptional with the bat. &nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Rovman Powell: Rovman Powell has pulled his weight into the team. His recent exploits against India and England prove that he can be a good finisher.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Anrich Nortje: Anrich Nortje is an unrealistically super quick bowler. He has mastered the slower ball now and this makes him more lethal.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<h2 id="rajasthan-royals-4-overseas-players-in-ipl-2022">Rajasthan Royals 4 Overseas Players in IPL 2022:?</h2>



<ol><li>Jos Butler: Jos Butler was retained by the Royals. His best position is at opening. No how the Royals solve the Devdutt, Butler, and Yashasvi problem is a big question.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="2"><li>Rassie Van Der Dussen: Rassie Van Der Dussen was a steal made by the Rajasthan Royals. He will add spice to the game in the middle-overs.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Shimron Hetmyer: An amazing finisher, Shimron Hetmyer will certainly win you 2 to 3 crucial games single-handedly.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Trent Boult: Trent Boult was immaculate with Mumbai. He needs no explanation. He gives you world class 3 overs in the powerplay and 1 clean over in the death.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<h2 id="kolkata-knight-riders">Kolkata Knight Riders:&nbsp;</h2>



<ol><li>Sam Billings/Alex Hales: If Sheldon Jackson plays, he will keep wickets and Alex Hales will play. If Sheldon is not picked, Sam Billings will be picked as a keeper and opener.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="2"><li>Andre Russell: Dre Russ is the heart of this franchise. He is someone who won them games out of nowhere. Andre Russell has spoken to the KKR management regarding his fitness and is working on making himself available.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="3"><li>Sunil Narine: Sunil Narine showed signs of his mystery spin in UAE last year. Narine can be used as a floater too.&nbsp;</li></ol>



<ol start="4"><li>Pat Cummins: Pat Cummins will lead the KKR bowling attack like every year. The Australian Skipper will add a lot of value to the team and will help young pacers.&nbsp;</li></ol>

IPL 2022: Predicting 4 Overseas Players of Every IPL Team.&nbsp;

<p><strong>IND vs ENG 4th T20I: </strong>With the scoreline of 2-1, India and England are now going to play the fourth T20I of the series at the MCA Stadium, Pune. There is a lot at stake for England, but India has some breathing space. </p>
<p>England have lost all three tosses so far and still managed to secure a win while batting first on a batting paradise. Meanwhile, India, who were used to winning series with a clean sweep, have lost one match in the series but can still wrap up the series in their favor today in Pune.</p>
<p>Let's take a look at the squads and strongest Playing11 possible for India and England in the 4th T20I:</p>
<h2><strong>IND vs ENG 4th T20I Squads</strong></h2>
<p><strong>England Squad:</strong> Philip Salt, Ben Duckett, Jos Buttler(c), Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Jamie Smith(w), Jamie Overton, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood, Saqib Mahmood, Gus Atkinson, Jacob Bethell, Rehan Ahmed</p>
<p><strong>India Squad:</strong> Sanju Samson(w), Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav(c), Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Dhruv Jurel, Mohammed Shami, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, Rinku Singh, Shivam Dube, Ramandeep Singh, Harshit Rana</p>
<hr>
<h2><strong>Playing11 and Strategies</strong></h2>
<p><strong>INDIA: </strong>Rinku Singh has returned to contention after recovering from his injury. On Thursday, India's assistant coach, Ryan ten Doeschate, confirmed that he is fully fit. His extended net session further hinted at his potential inclusion in the playing XI for the upcoming match.  </p>
<p>When it comes to strategy, India relied heavily on spin in the previous game, fielding five spinners—Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Varun Chakaravarthy, Ravi Bishnoi, and Abhishek Sharma—alongside just two pacers, Mohammed Shami and Hardik Pandya.</p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_67950e34bd1be.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>However, the pitch in Pune is unlikely to offer much assistance to spinners. With Rinku Singh, a reliable left-handed batter, back in the mix, India could consider making a tactical adjustment by replacing Washington Sundar with an additional pacer, Arshdeep Singh, to strengthen their pace attack.</p>
<p><strong>*India Playing11: </strong>Sanju Samson (wk), Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav (c), Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh, Varun Chakaravarthy</p>
<p><strong>ENGLAND: </strong>England might go with the same playing11 as in the 3rd T20I. There isn't any solid reason for them to make any changes only if there is a forced one. Jamie Smith(if not available) might get replaced by Jacob Bathell if needed.</p>
<p><strong>*England Playing11: </strong><span>Ben Duckett, Philip Salt (wk), Jos Buttler (c), Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Jamie Smith/Jacob Bethell, Jamie Overton, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood</span></p>
<hr>
<h2><strong>Pitch Report of Pune's MCA Stadium</strong></h2>
<p>The MCA Stadium in Pune is known for its batting-friendly conditions, making it a prime venue for high-scoring encounters. With short square boundaries and a true surface, batters often enjoy their time in the middle, and big totals are a common sight. If the scores don’t breach the 200-run mark, as was frequently seen in the last IPL, it would likely be due to disciplined bowling rather than any assistance from the pitch.</p>
<p> <img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_679c4dfe0bbbc.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>Unlike some other venues in India, dew is not a significant factor here, ensuring that both innings are played under fairly consistent conditions. Additionally, the pitch tends to remain firm throughout the game, offering good bounce for stroke play and providing some assistance to pacers who hit the deck hard. With these factors in play, the MCA Stadium is set to witness a thrilling contest filled with raining boundaries and aggressive stroke-making.</p>
<hr>
<h2><strong>IND vs ENG 4th T20I Dream11 Team and Fantasy Tips</strong></h2>
<p>Pune's MCA Stadium is a batting paradise, and unless we witness any sort of collapse, it will be a high-scoring game. Anything under 170 would be below-par. We will make our team based on this, and not to mention, there will be a risk factor. </p>
<p>For Wicketkeeper, Jos Buttler is going to be the first choice for everyone and he is a must-pick player. Sanju Samson is our second pick as he is not much picked, and he is due for a good performance. There couldn't be a better ground other than MCA Stadium for him to get his form back. He is even a choice for captain if you can take extra risks. </p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_6798f7b286b99.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>Tilak Verma is in great form and Ben Duckett is a good player of spin. With not much grip off the surface, these two batters are expected to fire to a good extent. SKY is under the radar and this Pune surface suits him so he is going to be in the team considering of what he can do when is in form. Tilak Verma or Ben Duckett can be another option for the captain and probably the safer option.</p>
<p>There are a lot of options in this section for both teams. Hardik Pandya and Liam Livingstone are two must-pick players and besides them, Overton might prove to be a good option. </p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_67990b84a34e9.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>Arshdeep Singh, if plays the match, must be in the dream11 team. Replace him with Mohammed Shami if Arshdeep doesn't play. Varun Chakravarthy and Mark Wood would be the two other bowlers. </p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_6798f7b59f608.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>This makes a strong team, more focused on the batting side as the pitch will favor the batters more. The bowling options are those who are most likely going to take wickets on such a surface. </p>
<h2><strong>Dream11 Team- Grand League</strong></h2>
<p><strong>Wicket-Keeper: </strong>Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson(C1)<br><strong>Batters: </strong>Surya Kumar Yadav, Den Duckett, Tilak Verma(C2)<br><strong>Allrounders: </strong>Hardik Pandya (VC), Liam Livingstone, J Overton<strong><br>Bowlers: </strong>Arshdeep Singh, V Chakravarthy, Mark Wood<strong> <br></strong></p>
<p>*- <strong>These are p</strong><strong>redictions and they might go wrong. Play at your own risk.</strong></p>

<p><span>Not only this, it is learned that India also won't be playing any warmup matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

<p><span>India batter Shubman Gill has started his preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The premier batter has returned to nets for the white-ball practice as he was named in the Indian team for the ODI series against England and the ICC tournament.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Shubman Gill has been under a lot of pressure for his poor outings with the bat, especially in Test cricket. With the emergence of Yashasvi Jaiswal, who delivered consistent performances, there were a lot of questions about the place of Gill, even in the ODIs.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Several fans and experts also have backed Yashasvi Jaiswal to open the innings for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 along with Rohit Sharma. However, amid all this Shubman Gill is making sure that he gives his best to train for the tournament.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>With England ODIs and ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner, Shubman Gill was seen batting in the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium. He was seen batting with the white-ball ahead of the tournament and the video can be seen at the end of the article.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Shubman Gill looked in golden touch with the bat as he played a pull towards the four before blocking the balls. The batter would be eager to make a strong comeback and reply to all the criticism in style with his performances in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Shubman Gill recently played the Ranji Trophy 2024-25 for Punjab. The batter was the lone warrior for his team as he hit a magnificent century and returned to form after having a poor outing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, where he played just three games.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Shubman Gill would want to carry on his form and help a team win. He has been one of the best batters for India in ODIs. He also has been named as the vice-captain of the team for the tournament and with added responsibility under his belt, a lot will be reliant on him.</span></p>

<p><span>Pakistan batter Babar Azam has been in the news for the last few days, especially with the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner. The batter's name has been discussed a lot related to making him open, especially with no clarity over Saim Ayub.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Pakistan is the only team that has yet to announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Since the last few days, he has been in the news as there have been a lot of reports that have suggested that there are chances that he might open the innings for the team.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>However, the fresh reports in Cricket Pakistan have revealed that there are no plans to make Babar Azam open the innings. The reports added that the selection committee has not given the green signal to the development as they feel that batter will be best suited in the middle order.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<h2><span><span class="Apple-converted-space">Selectors want a proper opener in the role; Babar Azam to at in middle-order</span></span></h2>
<p><span>The reports claimed that selectors want a proper opener in the role. One of the openers that has been finalized by the management is Fakhar Zaman. However, with Saim Ayub likely to miss out, it is learned that Imam-ul-Haq is also in contention to take the role.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>Babar Azam has been the best batter for Pakistan in ODIs. The batter has mustered truckloads of runs for the team in the format while batting at No.3 and he will be extremely crucial for his team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which will be played in Pakistan with India games to be played in India.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Babar Azam also has been a decent opener as well. He has been opening for the team in T20Is and has achieved massive success as well. He also opened in Test cricket during the recent South Africa series and aced that challenge as well, slamming two half-centuries in two innings.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>But, in white-ball cricket, Babar Azam has been criticised a lot for opening in T20Is. This is because he has failed to maximise the powerplay and has been batting with a low strike rate. It remains to be seen where he will be batting for the team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.</span></p>

<p><span>India assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate has provided a massive fitness update about batter Rinku Singh ahead of the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. He mentioned that the left-hander has gained full fitness and will be playing the next match of the five-match T20I series.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>India and England are all set to lock horns with each other in the fourth match of the T20I series. The game is all set to be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Thursday (30th January). The series is currently at 2-1, with hosts in the lead.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>India has been without the services of Rinku Singh for the last two games of the IND vs ENG series. The left-hander sustained a low back spasm while fielding in the first game and was then ruled out of the next two games of the series as he was under the observation of the BCCI medical team.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>In his place, the India team added Dhruv Jurel to the XI, and the move didn't pay off. The keeper-batter batted lower down the order and struggled to get going in both games, and it potentially cost them the last match of the series.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<h2><span><span class="Apple-converted-space">Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow - Ryan Ten Doeschate</span></span></h2>
<p><span>However, in what will be a massive boost, Rinku Singh has been declared fit for the next two games. The development was confirmed by assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate, who said that the batter hit nets and will be playing. He told reporters.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>"Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow. He batted yesterday night"</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Rinku Singh has been India's one of the best batters in the T20Is. His absence was felt in the last two games as well, but now, with him being fit, it is expected that he would walk straight into the XI and is likely to add Dhruv Jurel to the team.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>The fourth IND vs ENG T20I will be a great opportunity for India to to seal the series, but they need to make some corrections before heading into the next IND vs ENG match.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>India faced a disappointing 26-run loss in the last match at Rajkot. Their batting was one of the main reasons behind the loss and they would be hoping to make a strong comeback.</span></p>
