The IPL 2023 season
is less than a week away and the teams are gearing up to get the best squad for
the upcoming IPL season. While some teams are keeping their rosters intact,
requiring only a few changes, other teams are considering major changes to
their squads, focusing on some of the biggest names. and the market. With the
likes of Ben Stokes, Adam Zampa and Mayank Agarwal to be robbed by the team,
plenty of paddles should be available for these star players.
Another big factor
that comes in is the pocket book of each team, with franchises like Punjab
Kings and SRH having huge amounts of money in their prize pools. The IPL
Auction 2023 will be the first stop on the IPL road, which will be held on
December 23, 2022 on Star Sports Network and Hotstar.
Former Indian
cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar spoke about the Mumbai Indians team, how they will
prepare for the upcoming season and who they will focus on in this year's
auction, he said. "You know when you look at their bowling attack, last
time they suffered, but now they have Jofra Archer, Bumrah is good, they have
Jason Behrendorff, so it's the attacking quality they have, so that's not a
problem.
“Rohit Sharma is
also coming back to form, taking care of things, so hopefully he will be back
in the running as well. But a twist, now every IPL team needs someone like
Rashid Khan. So they are looking for their Rashid Khan or Sunil Narine. So that
is where someone like Zampa or Adil Rashid can come into the lineup to find the
leg-spinner. So, all the three sides are good regardless of their performance
in the past. So yes, the wrist spinner they left Mr Ashwin they have a history
of spinners, there is Markande and they Rahul Chahar, they should not let him
go but maybe the spinner and a foreigner like Zampa or Adil Rashid would be
perfect. for them."
"Indeed, both
Punjab Kings and SRH, they are going to show their crowd in the market because
look, one thing is for sure when we don't have an established team, when you
don't have games The right XI for Punjab and SRH doesn't mean they have a huge
bank balance and that means they will be smart and they will be aggressive in
these markets. 'Because they have physical strength and I think more than Adam
Zampa, they will follow him behind. start.
"SRH will go after Mayank Agarwal because they need a kind of abrasive opener as well. They don't have Kane Williamson right now who led them for many years as an experienced player and who used to open the innings as well. Mayank Agarwal is the kind of guy who has led a side, who plays quite freely as well, is very fearless, and very selfless. They might be thinking of him going forward as a leader as well. So let's see what's going to happen, but definitely they are going to look for that kind of introduction in that auction."
