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.
The 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has been an entertaining one for the fans who waited a long time for the return of cricket. As usual, there were some tremendous performances from the Indian youngsters and some disappointing ones from the players who came into this season with lots of expectations on them.
After the conclusion of the ongoing IPL, all the franchises will be looking forward to making some changes to their squad and make it a balanced one. And if a mega auction happens ahead of the next season all the franchises will try to rebuild a fresh squad to lift the trophy.
As of now, there’s no concrete news about the auction ahead of the next season but if a mega auction takes place almost all the franchises would look to strengthen their squad. In that process, they may have to drop some star players from the squad in accordance to the rules of the auction.
Here’s the IPL list of players for the 2021 edition:
1. Trent Boult- Mumbai Indians
Trent Boult was traded to the Mumbai Indians franchise by his former team Delhi Capitals ahead of IPL 2020. Teaming up with the Indian paceman Jasprit Bumrah, Boult has been going through all the batting lineups of the opponents and has played a vital role in the franchise’s success this season.
In 11 matches he played in this season so far, Boult picked 16 wickets at an average of 22.31 and an economy of 8.23 and is sharing the fifth position in the list of leading wicket-takers this season with RCB leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal.
However if a mega auction happens ahead of the next season he might be released from the squad as the franchise will rely upon their Indian bowler Bumrah and if Lasith Malinga returns to the squad, the Mumbai based team might not opt for him.
