IPL 2024: Best Benched XI of sixth week

The Indian Premier League 2024 has finally entered into the final couple of weeks as all teams try to qualify for the play-offs later this month. With only four spots up for grabs and with most teams left with only three games to play, the intense on-field battle for qualification has begun.

Over the 52 matches that have been played so far in this edition of the Indian Premier League, a lot of quality players have performed for their side but some players have also been sidelined to the bench owing to poor form as well as fewer opportunities in the playing XI. Ahead of the 7th week of the tournament, let's take a look at the best XI that was benched during the 6th week.

Here is the best-benched XI of the week:

1. Devdutt Padikkal

Devdutt Padikkal has been having a very rough tournament so far and has not been able to contribute much to the Lucknow Super Giants franchise. He has been starting at the number three position which is technically not his ideal slot to bat upon, which may be one of the reasons for this decline in form. The Southpaw is still one of the best upcoming Indian batters of the generation has a lot of quality and must be backed by the franchise for the final few games this season.
