Dynamic English opener <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2022-jason-roy-opts-out-of-tournament-citing-bio-bubble-fatigue/">Jason Roy</a> has withdrawn from IPL 2022 citing bio-bubble fatigue. Roy informed about his decision to the Gujarat Lions earlier. The new franchise had bought the South Africa-born cricketer for INR 2 crore which was also his base price at the IPL 2022 mega auction.

It is indeed a huge blow for the Titans as the 2019 World Cup winner was in the form of his life having amassed 303 runs in six matches at the recently-concluded PSL 2022 averaging 50.50 that included two half-centuries representing the Quetta Gladiators. While Gujarat are yet to name a replacement, they do have some great options available. So, without further ado, here&#8217;s a look at five of them.

Five Replacement Options for Jason Roy in IPL 2022

Aaron Finch surprisingly went unsold at the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/tag/ipl-auction/">IPL 2022</a> mega auction despite having led Australia to their maiden T20 World Cup triumph in the UAE a few months ago. No team was willing to buy him even at his base price of INR 1.5 crore. However, he now has a chance to open the innings for Gujarat Titans alongside youngster Shubman Gill.

Finch is currently the fifth-highest scorer in T20Is, having amassed 2,686 runs from 88 matches, and also has a wealth of experience under his belt playing for eight franchises in the marquee tournament between 2010 to 2020.

Therefore, the Australian white-ball captain could be a great option to replace Jason Roy for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League.

Martin Guptill had come into the IPL 2022 mega auction at his base price of INR 75 lakh but found no takers and went unsold. Nonetheless, with Jason Roy out of action, it could be an opportunity for the senior <a href="http://www.crictracker.com/cricket-teams/new-zealand" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New Zealand</a> batter to make his way into the Titans setup.

Guptill had scored 152 runs during the India T20I series in November that included two half-centuries and was also the leading run-scorer in the shortest format with 3,299 runs to his name before being surpassed by the current Indian skipper Rohit Sharma.

With a great reputation in international T20s, it will not be astonishing should the 35-year-old be seen donning the Gujarat jersey this time around.

(Photo Source: IPL/BCCI)</figcaption>

Despite being a late boomer at the international level, Dawid Malan has proved to be arguably England&#8217;s best T20I batter and was also the top-ranked batter in this format for quite a while. Unfortunately, no team showed faith in him at the IPL 2022 mega auction.

After being released by the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2022-mayank-agarwal-appointed-as-punjab-kings-captain/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Punjab Kings</a>, Malan had entered the mega auction at his base price of INR 1.50 crore. He is currently the fourth-ranked batter in the ICC T20I Rankings and therefore, this achievement could make the Gujarat-based franchise think hard as they eye suitable replacement options for his England teammate.

The middle-order sensation could thus be one of the candidates to fill in the big shoes of Jason Roy even though he hardly got a chance last season.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/shakib-al-hasan-to-play-test-series-against-south-africa-bcb-president/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shakib Al Hasan</a> is one of the finest all-rounders in the modern era. However, he went unsold at the IPL 2022 mega auction even at his base price of INR 2 crore. Shakib had an unimpressive ICC T20 World Cup 2021 and a hamstring injury had also forced him to miss the succeeding Pakistan T20Is.

He is currently the second-ranked T20I all-rounder in the ICC Rankings just behind Afghanistan sensation Mohammad Nabi. Apart from being a handy middle-order batter, Shakib can also provide vital breakthroughs with his left-arm spin which could turn out to be a bonus for GT.

Therefore, the southpaw could be the ideal replacement for Jason Roy. Meanwhile, it also remains to be seen if he is available for the IPL given that he has committed to BCB about traveling to South Africa for the Test series.

(Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

In an unfortunate turn of events, no franchise wanted <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2022-csk-post-heartwarming-video-for-beloved-chinna-thala-suresh-raina-after-parting-ways-with-him/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Suresh Raina</a> even at his base price of INR 2 crore during this year&#8217;s mega auction. Known as &#8216;Mr.IPL&#8217;, Raina has not done anything exceptional in the last two seasons, He missed the 2020 edition citing personal reasons and only managed 160 runs in 12 matches at a paltry average of 17.77 in 2021.

Nonetheless, the seasoned cricketer still remains the fourth-highest run-getter in IPL history with 5528 runs from 205 matches averaging 32.51 and a strike rate of 136.76, including a century and 39 half-centuries.

Raina, who had captained the now-defunct Gujarat Lions in the 2016 and 2017 editions could well be seen in action for Gujarat in different colors and setup this time.

Jason Roy was roped in by new entrants Gujarat Titans for INR 2 crore at the IPL 2022 mega auction last month
