IPL 2021: Team-wise one player who can be traded in mid-season transfer

18 matches have been completed in this season of IPL. It has started on a pretty solid note. There’s still a lot to think about when it comes to which teams will eventually qualify into the playoffs. RCB, to the surprise of many, has started phenomenally. SRH touted as a solid team, has found itself struggling to get going in the IPL 2021 as of now. Other teams have looked solid in parts and it has been a difference of small margins in the games. As we head toward the 50% completion of IPL, the mid-season transfer will become the talk of the town. While most of the teams look solid, a lot of players are underutilized at the moment and they can fit in perfectly to some teams. Here’s a look at- One player from each team who can be traded in midseason transfer in IPL 2021 1. N Jagadeesan (CSK to RR) Narayan Jagadeesan of CSK (Photo Source: Twitter) Having played just five games for CSK, there is no doubt that N Jagadeesan hasn’t been properly utilized until now. CSK already has got enough openers in the team including Ruturaj Gaikwad, Faf du Plessis, and Robin Uthappa. He is not used to the middle order position. Rajasthan Royals have had struggling starts as of now. While Jos Buttler’s ability is never in question, Manan Vohra hasn’t been able to prove himself. In four games, he has scored just 42 runs at a strike rate of 107. N Jagadeesan was the highest run-getter in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2021 with 364 runs to his name in just eight innings. He scored four half-centuries at a strike rate of 141 and was one of the biggest reasons why Tamil Nadu lifted the trophy this year. A player of his caliber warming the bench is not a great sight and a mid-season transfer to Rajasthan Royals can be a great move for him. 2. Daniel Sams (RCB to KKR) Daniel Sams RCB. (Photo Source: Twitter) Daniel Sams has been a great T20 bowler for quite some time now. This is the reason why he got called up to the international circuit as well. He has played just four international games and a lot has to be tested in him. Daniel Sams has been a part of only 3 IPL games and is yet to take a wicket. He has got variations in his bowling which can lead him to great results on these slow surfaces. But RCB is already packed with good bowlers and they won’t look for a change. KKR’s concern with death bowling is inevitable at this point. Russell has seen success but he’s not a specialist bowler. The inclusion of Daniel Sams can provide them an option to bowl in the death. A consistent run may help him to do great. 3. Nathan Coulter-Nile (MI to Punjab Kings) Nathan Coulter-Nile.

He’s an experienced bowler who has clearly been effective in the T20s with a handful of success in the IPL. He had a solid run for Kolkata Knight Riders. His numbers in IPL are staggering, with just 41 wickets from 33 games at a great average of 22. He did play a couple of games for Mumbai Indians but eventually was left out. He’s yet to play a game in this season of IPL. Mumbai Indians is already packed with fantastic players and there are not many chances of him getting selected. Punjab Kings need someone to compliment Mohammad Shami badly. Nathan Coulter-Nile can be the change that they need so badly. 4. Mayank Markande (RR to MI) Mayank Markande.

The mystery spinner has also marked his debut for India but his luck is yet to shine in the ongoing season of IPL. The 23-year-old also has the credit of famously dismissing MS Dhoni on his IPL debut. With some serious talent in the bag, the young spinner is just not able to get a place in the team due to team combinations. However, with midseason transfer approaching in near time, he can be a great prospect for Mumbai Indians. The pace attack of Mumbai Indians has always looked the strongest due to Trent Boult and Jasprit Bumrah in it. However, the spin section is mainly led by Rahul Chahar who has been doing fine work. With Krunal Pandya mainly coming into the scene for checking runs, the addition of Markande can be great assistance to the five-times champion. As he has already played with them in the 2019 season, he might not take much time to adjust to the team tactics. 5. Lockie Ferguson (KKR to Delhi Capitals) Lockie Ferguson of KKR. (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI) Lockie Ferguson is one of the quickest bowlers in the world right now. He can deceive the best of the batsman with sheer pace. He has been in great touch for New Zealand as of late. Lockie did well for the KKR last season. In the first game that he played for the franchise in IPL 2020, he went on to take 3 important wickets and also won the man of the match award. Unluckily, he’s not been able to find a place in the team this season. Delhi Capitals is already stacked with premium fast bowlers. But the inclusion of Lockie Ferguson can allow them to shuffle their pacers and give them the much-needed rest. Lockie is as good as anyone and things will be the same for Delhi even if they have to replace Rabada with Lockie. 6. Umesh Yadav (DC to MI) Umesh Yadav.

Although he has always had consistency issues, he has been able to find his place in the Indian team time & again. He’s one talented bowler who’s yet to reach his peak even after a decade since his international debut. Umesh Yadav has been pretty good in IPL in some seasons while he has had a forgettable run in the other. He did a great job for KKR before being useful for RCB. Unluckily, he can’t break into the playing XI for DC. Mumbai Indians may require an Indian fast bowler in the team. They have Jasprit Bumrah but he deserves to be rested in a couple of games throughout the season. Umesh Yadav can be a good replacement option considering his experience and talent. 7. Jason Roy (SRH to Rajasthan Royals) Jason Roy of SRH (Photo Source: Getty Images) Jason Roy is a quality-opening batsman who has fired in international cricket. He was one of the main reasons why England lifted The World Cup in 2019. He can take away the game from the opposition within the first half of the innings itself with some show of aggression. Jason Roy played for Delhi Capitals in the 2018 edition and scored 91 odd in one of their winning efforts in the first half of the season. He had played just eight games in that season. He was bought by SRH as a replacement for Mitchell Marsh and hasn’t featured in the playing XI yet. With the likes of Bairstow and Williamson already there, Roy wouldn’t be able to break into the team considering the limitation of foreign players in the team. Rajasthan Royals on the other hand need an opener very badly. There wouldn’t be a better option than one of the best openers in the world in limited-overs cricket. 8. Ravi Bishnoi (Punjab Kings to CSK) Ravi Bishnoi. (Photo Source: Twitter) Ravi Bishnoi is a leg spinner who has been very impressive in domestic cricket. In the 14 games he has played in the IPL, he has taken 13 wickets. These figures come at an average of just 29.5 and an economy of 7.23. With all these figures, he hasn’t been a priority for Punjab Kings. They have often considered the experience of Murugan Ashwin ahead of Ravi Bishnoi. There will always be a see-saw between these two players in terms of inclusion to the playing XI of Punjab Kings. CSK has got a few options but Ravi Bishnoi will be a fresh inclusion into the side. With all the talent that he has at such an early age, better things are bound to occur in the future. He will shine under the leadership of MS Dhoni who has always given great guidance to the youngsters.
