They say no other captain can match the leadership skills of MS Dhoni, but if any player can fill his shoes for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) is Kane Williamson. Williamson is one of the best players in the world; apart from that, he is a good leader. Under his captaincy, New Zealand is one of the most consistent teams in ICC events. Let’s talk about something other than the international circuit. Williamson in IPL had performed wonders for Sunrisers Hyderabad.
SRH, under his captaincy, marched into the finals of IPL 2018, where the squad lost against the Chennai Super Kings. Williamson in a yellow jersey is something I would love to see. It is expected that MS Dhoni will retire soon, and the squad needs an excellent leader to maintain their standards. Williamson has been out of form since March 2022, but everyone knows his capability and playing techniques.
If you are a huge cricketing fan and have seen Rilee Roussouw batting, you may have remembered his century against India. The left-handed giant is indeed one of the best players in the T20 circuit and has proved his worth after smashing back-to-back centuries, i.e. against India in the South Africa tour of India and one in the World Cup 2022. Roussuw has featured in 269 T20 games, where the 33-year-old batter has smashed 6874 runs with a strike of 143.44.
The T20 format demands aggressive intent, and players like Rile Roussuw matches the level. The left-handed batter can be the best pick for the middle order. He is the sort of player that can thrash bowlers over the park when needed. It would not be shocking to notice several IPL franchises bidding on him.
After mesmerising T20 World Cup, Sam Curran would be a player to watch in IPL 2023 Auction. Curran is one of the few all-rounders in the world that can be lethal with the bat and the bowl. Chennai Super Kings releasing Sam Curran in IPL 2023 retention was something I never expected.
Curran is indeed one of the best players in the world and had played 144 T20 games where the 24-year-old lad had bagged 146 wickets with an economy of 8.48 and had scored 1731 runs with a strike rate of 135.65. Curran can be a good finisher and can bowl at death over too. Someone like Curran adds depth to any side, and every franchise would need someone like him on the side.

English cricketers like Jos Buttler, Sam Curran, Jonny Bairstow, and others have contributed much to the IPL. Among them all, I didn’t notice Ben Stokes performing the way he performs for England. Well, one cannot deny that Stokes is one of the best all-rounders in the world and has proved his worth in every game format.
Stokes is someone that can bat well under pressure situations. He is someone who can also ball in death overs, power-plays and middle overs. Yes, he is a complete package and, indeed, a match-winner. Stokes, in T20, had played 43 games, where the veteran had scored 533 runs with a strike rate of 130.63 and picked 25 wickets at an economy of 8.40.
IPL is all about providing opportunities to young guns and bringing out the best version of them. Harry Tector is one of many players in the world that can be deadly if groomed well. You may have seen his exceptional batting against India, where Hardik Pandya loved his batting techniques.
There are high chances that Gujarat Titans may pick Tector, but every franchise will surely bid on him. Being a small cricketing side, Tector has played 53 T20I for Ireland and has scored 836 runs with a strike rate of 125.15.
T20 World Cup 2022 was indeed a turning point for Joshua Little as the lad grabbed much-needed attention from the spectators. In his 26 T20 games, little has bagged 39 wickets and bowled exceptionally well with an economy of 7.58. Little took a thrilling hat trick against New Zealand. He can also be an excellent wicket-keeping option. The franchise would love to have someone in the team with this consistency.
Cameron Green had impressed on the India tour, opening the batting with two quick fifties. However, he struggled in T20Is against the West Indies and England at home before the T20 World Cup. Green was called to Australia’s T20 World Cup squad after Josh Inglis was ruled out due to a hand injury. Green’s ability to bowl four overs of sustained pressure complements his power-hitting ability.
Many other players have a high chance of getting the highest bid in the new edition of IPL. This can be understood as many world-class players who can be lethal and shine in the current edition of IPL 2023.
