Riley Russo
IPL 2024 Auction: As the date of IPL 2024 auction is getting closer, the preparations of the teams are also reaching the final stage. All the teams have prepared a list of those players who have to be included in their squad this time. At the same time, the hustle and bustle of the players is going to increase slowly but in the coming times. Meanwhile, the special thing is that many big players are going to come in the auction, for which there will be a war between the teams. In true sense, this is no less than a prize war. So let’s try to know and understand who could be those three players for whom teams can be ready to spend money like water.
Big bid may be placed on Harry Brook this time
Although English batsman Harry Brook is not being mentioned much yet. But let us assume that when his name is called in this year’s auction, many teams will try to get him in their fold. When the auction was held for the year 2023, his price had reached Rs 13.25 crore. The battle between Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad went on for a long time and finally SRH won them over by paying a huge amount. This time Harry Brook has kept his base price at Rs 2 crore, placing him at number one in the IPL. Harry Brook had scored 190 runs in 11 matches in the 2023 season. He scored an unbeaten inning of 100 runs with his bat, but after this he was not able to play a big inning even once.
Travis Head could become this year’s most expensive player
Travis Head could be another player that teams will be eager to acquire. Not many of his statistics are available in IPL, but he scored a lot of runs in the ODI World Cup 2023 played in India. By scoring a half-century in the semi-finals and a century against India in the final, he became a big player and also came on the radar of the teams. He has played for RCB twice so far, but that was a long time ago. He made his debut in IPL in the year 2016. Then he got a chance to play three matches. In which he scored 54 runs. After this, in the next year i.e. 2017 also he played for the same team and got a chance to play 7 matches. Then 151 runs came from his bat. He also scored a half-century. But since then, the atmosphere has changed a lot and Travis Head has emerged in a new form. This time his base price is Rs 2 crore and there is every possibility that most of the teams will try to get him in their fold.
Riley Rousseau can also be included among the expensive players
Riley Rousseau is also one such player for whom there is a possibility that money will be showered between the teams. When the auction was held for the year 2023, Delhi Capitals bought him for Rs 4.60 crore. Rajasthan Royals team was also trying to win him over, but in the end DC won. Riley Rousseau’s IPL career is also not very long, but he has impressed a lot in the recent times. He made his IPL debut in the year 2014, when he got to play three matches, in which he scored 39 runs with his bat. After this, he played two matches in 2015 and scored a total of 14 runs. After this he was out of IPL. But in 2023 he once again entered. This year he got a chance to play full 14 matches. In this he was successful in scoring 209 runs. He had scored a half-century. The special thing about Riley Rousseau is that he can also bowl, so it should not be a surprise if his bid goes into crores.
