Top Foreign Players Who Will Be In Demand in IPL 2024 Auction

The IPL 2024 auction is set to witness the return of seasoned campaigners like Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins. Here's a look at the most sought-after foreign players in the upcoming IPL 2024 auction.

IPL 2024 Auction: Following the release of retention lists by franchises, the focus now shifts to the most sought-after players for the upcoming IPL 2024 auction, particularly on foreign players who often command significant bids. Notable names, including ODI World Cup standouts and returning stars, are expected to draw considerable attention.

Notable Overseas Players Released:

Harry Brook, despite an underwhelming debut IPL season with Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2023 after being one of the costliest buys, remains a promising talent for T20s. Franchises eyeing young prospects might target Brook, considering his potential to flourish in the format.

Wanindu Hasaranga, released by the Royal Challengers Bangalore, had a strong IPL 2022 but experienced a dip in form the following season. Despite this, the Sri Lankan all-rounder remains a valuable asset, and several teams are expected to pursue him in the auction due to his multifaceted abilities.

Prominent bowlers like Wanindu Hasaranga, Jofra Archer, and Lockie Ferguson are in the mix. Despite fitness concerns for Hasaranga and Archer, all three possess impressive T20 records, having claimed over 150 wickets with averages below 25 and economy rates under 8 runs per over.

World Cup Performers in Demand:

Travis Head, after his magnificent 137-run innings in the 2023 World Cup final against India, has become a sought-after explosive opener among various franchises. His stellar performance has significantly raised his value, leading to increased interest and higher bidding in the upcoming auction.

Daryl Mitchell, a pivotal middle-order batsman for New Zealand in the recent World Cup, showcased his power-hitting abilities with a spectacular century against India in the semi-finals. His outstanding performance in the tournament has made him a prime target for several teams in the auction.

Rachin Ravindra, another standout performer from New Zealand, shone brightly with his all-round skills in the 2023 World Cup. His proficiency with both bat and left-arm spin makes him an enticing prospect for numerous franchises vying for versatile players.

Gerald Coetzee's impactful performances in the 2023 World Cup, showcasing his raw pace, elevated his status in franchise cricket. The South African fast bowler, already renowned in the format, garnered further recognition at the international level, making him an attractive proposition for potential bidders.

Return of Star Players:

The IPL 2024 auction is set to witness the return of seasoned campaigners like Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins. Cummins, with an IPL track record spanning six editions and 45 wickets in 42 matches, notably holds the record for the third-fastest half-century in the league. Starc, making his IPL comeback since 2015, brings his lethal left-arm pace with a remarkable economy of 7.17 and an impressive strike rate.
