The 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL) auction is all set to take place in Dubai on December 19, 2023, and ahead of the massive business extravaganza, some players are the favourites to receive lucrative contracts. Travis Head, Rachin Ravindra, Harry Brook, Pat Cummins, and Josh Hazlewood might get picked up at hefty prices.

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), who concluded their journey in the sixth spot in the 2023 IPL edition, severed the ties with 11 players before the auction. Following this move, the franchise has a remaining purse amount of INR 23.25 crore. Challengers will back themselves to clinch the trophy in 2024 and in the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/tag/ipl-auction/?ref=hm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL 2024 auction</a>, they will look to snap up some match-winning international players to get the desired results in the competition.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/pat-cummins/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pat Cummins</a> led Australia from the front in the 2023 World Cup and guided the team to the record-extending sixth World Cup title. He scalped 15 wickets in 11 matches at an economy of 5.75 in the One-Day International (ODI) event played in India. In the 2023 IPL edition, he was one of the major absentees as he opted to stay away from the tournament for the preparation of the crucial International Cricket Council (ICC) events.

In 2024, he is looking to make a comeback in the cash-rich league and his name will go under the hammer, with a base amount of INR 2 crore. RCB might show interest in Cummins as they have parted ways with quality pacers Josh Hazlewood and Harshal Patel. Following the departure of both fast bowlers, Challengers will require a pace spearhead in their squad.

Cummins is not only known for his excellent bowling but also his spunky batting. In 2022, he notched up a 14-ball fifty for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) against Mumbai Indians (MI). The Aussie skipper will add depth to RCB’s batting unit with his exceptional all-round talent.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/rachin-ravindra/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rachin Ravindra</a> is expected to emerge as one of the most expensive buys in the auction. His maximum reserve amount is INR 50 lakh but his recent performances might cause a bidding battle among the franchises. In the 2023 World Cup, he looked sensational with his bat for New Zealand.&nbsp;

The southpaw hit 578 runs in 10 games at a strike rate of 106.44 and ended up as the fourth-leading run-getter in the competition. Following his extraordinary numbers, Challengers might include him in their scheme of things. He might get the responsibility to bat at the top order with Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis. As an all-rounder, he can add strength to RCB’s spin-bowling unit and hence would be the biggest target on RCB's radar.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/mitchell-starc/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mitchell Starc</a> is planning to return to the league after nine years. The veteran Australia paceman has set his base amount of INR 2 Crore for the upcoming business event. Starc’s immense experience and current form might entice some franchises and they may go after him in the auction.&nbsp;

RCB will strive to fill Hazlewood’s boots in the auction so they may also not hesitate to fetch the 33-year-old at a huge sum. Back in the 2014 and 2015 instalments, Starc served Bangalore and looked stupendous with the ball. In 2015, he grabbed 20 wickets in 13 contests and ended up as the fifth-highest wicket-taker in the competition.

Talking about his recent bowling numbers, the star pacer bagged 16 wickets in 10 matches at an economy of 6.06. Noting his IPL record and current form, RCB will endeavour to get him on their side. &nbsp;
