Team-wise one star bowler who may have to leave his team if the mega auction happens ahead of IPL 2021
Franchises may have to make the tough calls of letting some of their star bowlers go.
2. Shardul Thakur- Chennai Super Kings
Shardul Thakur came into the public limelight after an impressive season with the Rising Pune Supergiants in the 10th edition of the tournament. Due to his impressive display of bowling, he was bought by the Chennai Super Kings for INR 2.6 crore ahead of IPL 2018.
Playing for the Chennai based franchise, Shardul picked 33 wickets in 31 games at an economy of 9.12 and is contributing to the franchise in a regular manner with his variations with the ball. In the current season, he has picked 9 wickets in 8 matches but leaked runs at a high-rate when the team required an economical spell from him.
The Chennai based franchise has had the worst IPL season in their history as they were knocked out of the league before the playoffs for the first time. As the squad is filled up with players who are close to their career end, CSK have begun to plan for the future and in the process, they are supposed to drop some star players to make their squad balanced.
