post hesson they havent made many blunders at auction  , lets see im not buying it

 

Practically, RCB cannot afford too as if it shell 20 cr on one player, it would have only 37 cr remaining for the rest ... It may push for Warner though for over 10 cr

And Sir Chahal 

 

Those 10 players are in the Marquee list as given by BCCI, which means that they will be the first to be auctioned and if some of them are unsold in R1, they will be brought back to auction in two more rounds iirc

Top 5 teams in terms of retention/draft with weightage given to teams with rising stars and minimum 3 picks, in alphabetical order: 

 

Top 5

  • A'bad: Full marks for drafting Rashid, one of the best spinners in business, and Hardik, one of the best high strike rate batsman and a useful bowler. Invested in Gill, who is among the most talented batsmen (with a need to work on his SR). All three have a good fan following so A'bad may have hit a marketing jackpot 
  • DC: Ticked all the boxes with Pant (WK-AR), Shaw (High strike rate opener), Axar (spinner), and Nortje (pace bowler). Except as the first pick, Rabada would have been difficult to retain  
  • LSG: KL is one of the best T20 batsmen (needs to work on SR), Stoinis, a useful cricketer, and Bishnoi, an upcoming talent 
  • RCB: Kohli, the brand. Maxwell can be up and down but a unique player. Siraj can bowl at various stages of the game
  • RR: Samson and Buttler, what more can you ask for from a batting PoV. Young Jaiswal as an investment. Needs to get a couple of good bowlers at the auction 

 

Bottom 5

  • CSK: Moeen & Gaikwad are good picks. Jadeja is middle ground unless his batting slot is sorted out. MSD as a player in 2022 appears like a legacy pick
  • KKR: V Iyer could be a tournament wonder or in a purple patch so KKR may have put a lot of faith in him. Varun C is no longer a mystery esp. for good batsmen. Russell & Narine could turn out to be past their best (but do have great records and can pick up their games) 
  • MI: Bumrah is a nice pick. SKY is useful but not sure how long his purple patch will continue (could have gone with a youngster like Kishan who may have a higher upside in the long term). Rohit & Pollard are more like legacy picks. Pollard was the 4th pick which not many would agree to be so maybe MI had less options for the 4th pick (could have gone with 3 too which would have allowed them to bid  relatively high for QdK, Kishan, & Boult. Now it would be lucky to get one)
  • PK: Just two picks so banking on the auction
  • SRH: Williamson & 2 youngsters, so again banking big time on the auction  

 

Will be interesting to see how the teams improve upon their strengths at the auction!!

Needs to work on his game, which he is capable of ... A'bad earlier targeted Kishan, who was probably approached by MI suggesting that it would go hard on him at the auction (so Kishan has nothing to lose as he either gets to go back to his old franchise or get a good price if some other team bids higher)

BCCI has released a list of 10 marquee players based on the interest shown by franchises:

 

 

Even if these guys go unsold in their first round, they will be brought back for another round or two

Below is my recommendation for one game changing player for each franchise. In alphabetical order and excluding players who played for the franchise last year: 

 

  • A'bad: Mitch Marsh. Marsh can make good use of PP (if Gill starts slow) and also bowl a few overs (less pressure on SDP to bowl in every game) 
  • CSK: Harshal Patel. Fits the profile of a player who can be successful at CSK. Trundler + a bowler who can bat + wants to play under MSD
  • DC: David Warner. DC has two attacking batsmen in its retention. Need a Warner to be the pillar of its batting and give it an edge in knockout games (an issue for the team) 
  • KKR: Faf du Plessis. Solid opener that fits with KKR's attacking approach. Can captain the team as well. 
  • LSG: Shardul Thakur. Thakur asked KL for his "budget". Can be a good batting and bowling partner for Stoinis where they can share the overs and also bat alongside with each other esp. beneficial if KL plays slowly 
  • MI: Yuzi Chahal. MI tends to go for a good leg spinner. Chahal would be a good pick. 
  • PK: Quinton de Kock. A left-hander to partner Agarwal in opening. WK. And can be its captain too. 
  • RCB: Ishan Kishan. Same benefits as QdK but more suitable to the batting friendly surface at B'lore. 
  • RR: Deepak Chahar. It needs a good bowler. D Chahar has played for Rajasthan in Ranji. Can bat as well. 
  • SRH: R Ashwin. Rashid's are a big shoes to fill but Ashwin, who is experienced on Indian pitches, can use the pitches at Hyderabad as well.

MI will target SRK as straight replacement for SDP. He wasnt bowling anyway

Yeah, SRK would be one of the targeted players for MI along with Kishan, QdK, Dhawan,  Boult, Yuzi, etc., but they would feel good to get a couple. 

 

If any team gets 50% if its key targeted players, it would feel good

SRK can bowl a bit, but is usually not required to for TN because he bowls spin and they already have several options - Sai Kishore, Sidharth, Murugan, Aparajito, and so on
