IPL 2024: These players can create a stir by debuting in IPL, six of them are millionaires, and one is Hardik's replacement


Posted on 15th Mar 2024 10:41 am by rohit kumar

Everyone will be keeping an eye on some of the players who got a surprising amount in the IPL bidding. These include Australian left-arm fast bowler Spencer Johnson, who was bought by Gujarat Titans for Rs 10 crores, Sameer Rizvi, bought by Chennai Super Kings for Rs 8.4 crores, Kumar Kushagra, bought by Delhi Capitals for Rs 7.2 crores, Rs 5 crores. Special eyes will be on South African fast bowler Gerald Coetzee, who was bought by Mumbai Indians for Rs 4.8 crore, and Sri Lankan fast bowler Nuwan Thusara, who was bought by Mumbai for Rs 4.8 crore.

 

Not only this, New Zealand all-rounder of Indian origin Rachin Ravindra (1.8 crore, CSK) and Afghanistan all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai, who was taken by Gujarat for Rs 50 lakh, can also become the center of attraction with their performance. Omarzai is being considered as the replacement of Hardik Pandya in Gujarat. He has shown in a short time why he has the potential to become a legendary all-rounder in the times to come.

 

Expectations from Sameer of Meerut

Meerut's Sameer Rizvi caught everyone's attention with his performances in the UP Premier League, but he did not expect that CSK would take him for such a huge amount. Sameer's performance in the Ranji Trophy was not very good, but he will leave no stone unturned to leave his mark through the IPL platform. In the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 match on a slow pitch in Dehradun, Rizvi almost single-handedly led Uttar Pradesh to victory by scoring an unbeaten 75 runs in 46 balls against Tamil Nadu's spin trio of Varun Chakraborty, R Sai Kishore and Washington Sundar.

 

Gujarat's hope from Spencer's balls

Spencer Johnson played one ODI for Australia against India in Indore last year. After giving 61 runs in eight overs, no one had thought that Rs 10 crore would be invested in him in the IPL bid. His strengths are his height (six feet four inches) and the bounce and angle of his balls. The 28-year-old fast bowler is now one of the most sought-after players on the T20 circuit, having featured in The Hundred, MLC, and Global T20 Canada in addition to being the strike bowler for Brisbane Heat in the BBL.

Sharp can leave an impact

Nuwan Thusara, who bowls like Lasith Malinga, has taken a hat-trick against Bangladesh this month. Mumbai has also taken Gerald Coetzee. Coetzee had performed well against India. He distracts with his speed. There was a huge competition between Delhi and CSK to get Jharkhand wicketkeeper-batsman Kumar Kushagra. Delhi director Sourav Ganguly is very impressed with him. The sharpness had impressed Capitals director of cricket Sourav Ganguly in the Deodhar Trophy last year and the subsequent trials. Then in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, he batted at number six and scored 67 runs in 37 balls to help Jharkhand score 355 runs against Maharashtra.

 

Conway was injured, and now responsibility for Rachin

Before the bid, there was a discussion that Rachin Ravindra would get a lot of money, but his share was Rs 1.8 crore. He will be a big part of CSK's plans after teammate Devon Conway was injured. Ravindra is not a power-hitter but can bat dangerously at the top along with Ruturaj Gaikwad. This 24-year-old player can also prove to be a useful spinner, who will further sharpen the bowling attack of CSK. Especially the pitches of Chennai are favorable for spin.

 

Omarzai is Gujarat's new 'Hardik Pandya'

Afghanistan's Omarzai will play the role of all-rounder for Gujarat in the absence of Hardik Pandya. 23-year-old Omarzai can play in any batting order and can swing the new ball in the powerplay. Sachin Tendulkar was also so impressed by Omarzai's swing bowling during the World Cup last year that it reminded him of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Praveen Kumar. Omarzai's recent form with the bat is also encouraging. He scored a career-best unbeaten 149 in the ODI against Sri Lanka at Pallekele and also scored for Rangpur Riders in the Bangladesh Premier League. He has worked closely with Babar Azam in BPL and PSL (Peshawar Zalmi).

 

Nuwan Thushara, Mumbai's new 'Malinga'

Lasith Malinga has troubled the batsmen many times with his slinging action, which has been a familiar sight in the IPL over the years. Now the time has come for another Sri Lankan slinger to play in the Mumbai jersey. 29-year-old Nuwan Thushara has never been a part of the IPL before but has played in the LPL and PSL. He has already worked with this franchise in MI Cape Town in the SA20 and has eased his way into the Mumbai set-up. Apart from this, he is also going to get a lot of benefits from Mumbai's bowling coach Lasith Malinga.
