Phil Salt's explosive batting in IPL 2024 has made him a massive prospect to earn a big cheque at the 2025 mega auction. The English opener played a big role in Kolkata Knight Riders' victorious campaign, smashing 435 runs in 12 matches and stitching solid partnerships with Sunil Narine.

The 28-year-old has proven his ability to take on bowlers from the first ball and provide consistent firepower in the powerplay. In the previous edition, he featured in 12 games, and scored 435, with 89 being his highest.
 
With several franchises desperately seeking reliable overseas openers who can dominate from ball one, Salt's stocks could go higher. His batting along with his wicketkeeping skills, makes him a complete package that teams will likely break the bank for.
