3. Andrew Tye (Rajasthan Royals)
Winner of the 2018 Purple Cap, he was roped in by Rajasthan Royals for a price of 1 crore in the auctions. He made his debut for the Chennai Super Kings in 2017, where he played 6 matches and grabbed 12 wickets. In the subsequent season, he took 24 wickets for Kings XI Punjab. However, he only managed to pick 3 wickets in 6 games next season and was dropped from the Playing XI.
Rajasthan have played Steve Smith, Jos Butler, Jofra Archer, and Tom Curran for the majority of the season as their 4 overseas cricketers. Tom Curran has had a decent start and has chipped in with both bat and ball. Plus, with the return of star-allrounder Ben Stokes, even Curran would have to make way. Tye does not look like someone who could break into this Playing XI.
Tye, similar to Stanlake, could also be valuable for teams that require a quality overseas pacer. He might just go back to his ex-franchise Kings XI Punjab, as Chris Jordan seems to be miserably out of form. He has picked up 21 of his 39 career wickets in the death overs, at an economy rate of just 8.88.
