IPL 2023: 10 Players who might get traded to other team in trading window

It has been just a few months since Gujrat Titans have crowned the champions of IPL 2022 but the backward counting for the next season has already started. BCCI is planning to conduct a mini-auction for the upcoming IPL 2023. Before the auction, there will be an exciting trading window where players can move from one franchise to another. The trading window has been reported to open in November or December. Ravindra Jadeja is the biggest name that is expected to appear in the window. Let us have a look at the top ten players who could potentially be traded ahead of the mini-auction. 10 Players who could get traded to other team: 1. Ravindra Jadeja Ravindra Jadeja had quite a roller coaster of a year in the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League. Ahead of the season, the veteran allrounder was handed over the captaincy duties as MS Dhoni stepped down from the role. However, the four-time IPL champions had an awful start to their campaign suffering a string of defeats. Jadeja’s batting form also took a hit and it seemed the captaincy had taken a toll on his form. Midway in the season with CSK almost out of the playoffs race, the ace-allrounder was sacked from captaincy, and Dhoni returned as the skipper. The 33-year-old then was sidelined due to injury and there were talks of him being unhappy with the management. The rift between the southpaw and the administration appeared to grow as Jadeja deleted all his Instagram posts related to CSK recently. Though the star allrounder had a poor season where he could accumulate only 116 runs in 10 matches with a strike rate of 118.37, he is still regarded as among the best all-rounders in world cricket at the moment. The trading window could see many franchises trying to rope in the ace Indian allrounder. Also, CSK on the other hand shall gather a whopping 16 Cr. on releasing Jadeja and they could use this to build the side. 2. Shahrukh Khan Ahead of the 2022 season, Shahrukh Khan was expected to have his breakthrough year. Roped in by the Punjab Kings as their designated finisher, the Chennai-born was not able to have an impactful year. Shahrukh featured in eight matches and could only score 117 runs at a strike rate of 108.33. Due to his poor showing, he was also dropped mid-way in the competition. The Punjab franchise had roped the 27-year-old for an incredible sum of 9 Cr and would have expected more from the batter. The Punjab franchise might move on from the power-hitter not only because of his poor showing but also due to the emergence of wicket-keeper batter Jitesh Sharma. The 28-year-old had an amazing season where he scored 234 runs in 10 innings at a sensational strike rate of 163.64. The Kings might look to part ways with Shahrukh which would free up a large chunk of money while other IPL teams might look to draft in the star-batter. 3. Manish Pandey Lucknow Super Giants picked Manish Pandey for a sum of 4.6 Cr to strengthen their middle order. However, the Indian batter failed to put on an impressive performance in the opportunities he got. In his six appearances for the side, the middle-order batter scored 88 runs at a strike rate of 110. Manish was not given a longer rope as Deepak Hooda was having a sensational season with the bat in the middle order. Hooda aced in the role scoring 451 runs at a strike rate of 136.67. Also, Evin Lewis who was asked to slot in the middle order played some breathtaking knocks that further closed the door on the 32-year-old. Manish might not be in the scheme of things of the Lucknow franchise that already had a star-studded batting lineup. The team management might release the veteran batter and free up some cash in their purse which was emptied in the 2022 Player Auction. Many other franchises might be willing to add the veteran batter to their lineup. 4. Tymal Mills Mumbai Indians had an awful campaign in this year's IPL. Many of their players were not able to rise to the occasion and England’s Tymal Mills was one among them. The left-arm pacer went into the tournament with a fair amount of International experience under his belt but the Dewsbury-born could not have a significant impact. The fast-bowler featured in five matches and took six wickets at a high economy of 11.18. Widely renowned for his death-bowling in the T20 circuit, the 30-year-old failed to replicate it at the IPL. He was benched for his mediocre show and after the pacer was sidelined due to injury. The likes of Daniel Sams and Riley Meredith performed decently at the later stages of the competition and also with the speedster Jofra Archer expected to make a return in the next season, it's unlikely the Mumbai management will have Mills as part of their plans. Franchises lacking a quality left-arm seamer might be willing to rope in the pacer. 5. Chris Jordan England's right-arm pacer did not have a great 2022 season with CSK. The absence of Deepak Chahar increased Jordon's responsibility but the veteran bowler could not deliver for his side. In his four outings, he could only take two wickets and leaked runs at an economy of 10.52. Jordan was dropped from the side following his string of poor performances. The likes of Dwaine Pretorius and Dwayne Bravo performing decently for the side kept England’s star bowler out of the side. Going by his limited outings, it's likely the 33-year-old isn't in CSK’s plans going forward. Jordan could be traded to another team which will add the 3.6 Cr in Chennai's kitty. The veteran pacer is quite highly rated in the T20 circuit and can grab the interest of many teams. 6. Shivam Mavi Shivam Mavi was one of the youngsters from the class of 2018 that Kolkata Knight Riders reinvested in for the 2022 season but the 23-year-old was not able to repay the faith. In the six matches Mavi played, he could only manage five wickets and leaked runs at an economy of 10.32. KKR would have hoped that this would be a breakthrough season for the youngster but wasn’t to be. Kolkata franchise bought Mavi at a whopping sum of 7.25 cr and might look to release him in the trading window. The money released might be used by KKR to fill up the holes in their squad. The pacer from Uttar Pradesh has shown promise and with his ability to swing the ball at high speeds, opposition teams might look to add Mavi to their lineup in the upcoming trading window. 7. Romario Shepherd Sunrisers Hyderabad paid a huge sum of 7.75 Cr for the Caribbean allrounder in the 2022 Player Auction. However, the Guyana-born in his debut IPL season was not able to fit the bill. He made three appearances for the Hyderabad franchise and with the bat, he did decently scoring 58 runs at a strike rate of 141.46. However, with the ball, he did not fare well having three wickets at an economy of 10.89. Kane Williamson & Co. having three foreign batters featuring in the lineup demanded Romario play more of a bowler who bats but the allrounder was not able to perform as per expectations. The Sunrisers might not want such a sum for a player who might not feature in most of the games. Thus, he shall be available for trade, and his all-round credentials might be a handful for many franchises. 8. Kamlesh Nagarkoti Delhi Capitals picked Kamlesh Nagarkoti as a backup Indian seamer. With the likes of top Indian bowlers Shardul Thakur and Khaleel Ahmed performing well, the youngster did not get many opportunities. The 22-year-old got a lone game in 2022 where he conceded 29 runs off two overs. Delhi franchise have depth in their fast bowling arsenal with Chetan Sakariya warming the bench for the majority of the season. The presence of Nagarkoti appears to be more of a luxury than a need. This makes him a prospect to get traded. Some teams are eyeing an Indian seamer and the Rajasthan-born could be a good fit with his ability to clock speeds of 140kmph. He also had a fair amount of IPL experience which is an added advantage. 9. Vijay Shankar Vijay Shankar was drafted into the Gujarat side to bring in experience in the middle order but the allrounder to failed to impress. He had quite an awful season scoring just 19 runs in four matches at a strike rate of 54.29. The allrounder has been a consistent performer in the domestic circuit but has failed to replicate the same form in the bigger stages. The reigning IPL champions also unearthed Sai Sudharsan in their successful season. The youngster had a fair amount of success scoring 145 in five matches at a strike rate of 127.19. He could be Gujarat’s prospect in the middle order. Gujarat Titans seem to have moved past Shankar and thus, his name shall be on the cards in the upcoming IPL trading window. Franchises who lack an Indian seam bowling allrounder will keep a close watch on him. 10. Karun Nair Rajasthan Royals roped in Karun Nair as their backup batsman who can fit in the middle-order. In the limited opportunities the 30-year-old got, he was not able to make a mark with his performances. The right-handed batter represented the Royals in three matches and could only manage 18 runs at a strike rate of 88.89. Rajasthan Franchise seems to have a lock jam at the top order with Devdutt Paddikal who is a designated opener slotting in the middle order. Amid some high-quality batters, it seems unlikely Karun will be a regular feature in the team going forward. The Royals shall be inclined to trade the Karnataka batter and look for options to fill up the gaps in their squad. Teams in search of a top-order Indian batter can look to draft him on their side.
