IPL 2022: 5 Players who can become captains after getting picked in mega auction
Several released players entering the mega auction have captaincy skills.
2. David Warner
David Warner is probably one of the most entertaining players, on and off-field. A batter with sheer aggression and controlled power-hitting, he is a player to be checking out in both IPL and the national side.
When it comes to his IPL stint, David Warner was the most consistent captain for the Sunrisers Hyderabad. He led the Orange Army to the playoffs five times straight (2016-2021). Also, he won their first IPL title as the winning captain (2016).
But after a forgettable 2021 edition, he was sacked as a captain and removed from the playing XI as he couldn’t show the desired results with the bat and leadership for the team (195 runs in 8 matches). And by this, he would part his ways with Sunrisers Hyderabad from the upcoming edition. But he made a commendable comeback (289 runs in 7 innings) by winning the ‘Player of the Tournament’ title for the winning Australian team in the recent T20 World Cup. Thanks to his batting and captaincy, it’s no surprise that he will be the most sought-after candidate in the upcoming mega auctions.
