Let’s auction:
In this segment are few guesses, suggestions or moves a team might undertake to strengthen themselves. Completely my opinion and if any team follows it, a big thank you for listening to their fans.
Before scrolling down please check the list of players released and retained for the season of IPL 2020.
Also check the latest changes for the IPL 2020 Seasons.
Starring RCB
The pittiest team of IPL History. Well, also the stupidest, and they prove it in every auction, atleast till now they did. Why let Hetmyer or Stoinis go when you wasted so much on them ignoring others on the main auction. This is a smaller auction with limited players in the auction pool, but if they act smart, they can still “E salla cup namade”
Considering their home ground Chinnaswamy, swashbuckling openers and fierce finishers along with piercing new ball bowlers are a must. And with all that if they could add few leggies, that’s always better.
Few players to suggest- Manjot Kalra, Martin Guptil, Chris Linn, David Miller, Carlos Brathwaite, Chris Morris, Jason Behrendoff, Oshane Thomas, Piyush Chawla and Ish Sodhi. Considering their purse at least 3/4 from the above mentioned might be afforded.
CSK
Considering the demand and MSD’s love for Indian players, they already have all their bases covered. A few additions could be Ish Sodhi a Tahir injury replacement, Behrendoff, Southee, PChawla, ATye and Uthappa (old is gold, CSK mantra, don’t be surprised).
MI
If I were a MI fan, I wouldn’t want anybody else. But since I am not, I just want 2 additions, S.curran & Oshane Thomas. Curran in for Pollard (if he’s cold) , rest same champions 11.
SRH
They have a perfect team, just 1 issue and that’s of a finisher’s. Shankar is not up to that mark as of now So David Miller or Chris Morris could be their search. P.Chawla another good option, teaming up with R.Khan , both can do wonders.
K11P
The franchise is in hot water again. First the Coach is removed then the Captain, God save Zinta’s Kings.
With Kumble being appointed as the Coach, Who could be the Captain? Well as of now only KL seems as the answer. The team lacks few all rounders and a few bowlers both fast and spin.
Few players to suggest- Chris Linn(CHG replacement), Carlos Brathwaite, Chris Morris, Jason Behrendoff, Oshane Thomas, Piyush Chawla and Ish Sodhi.
KKR
Ami jani na (I don’t know), what’s they upto. Gill seems to open along with Naraine for all the games. With Rana coming at 3, Russel desiring to get to bat more should get no. 4 and DK can come at 5 to bat, after that guess they seek 2 all-rounder in their side. Their bowling though seems ok, with a lot depending on Kuldeep’s form.
Few players to suggest- Chris Morris, Sam Curran, Jason Behrendoff, Oshane Thomas.
DC
Youth with experience. The team is set, only piece missing is that of the finisher. I need an explanation why any team would let a player like Morris go. The alternate to that would be Miller, Brathwaite or Morris himself, buy him back. Also, Lamichane is not used properly, he should get as many matches as possible.
RR
Looks a solid team. Considering the reddest hot form of Steve Smith, and a solid year for Stokes, Archer and Samson, RR looks like a Contender for IPL 2020 Trophy. Considering the Jaipur ground, I would be surprised if they don’t run after Sam Curran or Stoinis.
