Aakash Chopra picks six big players who could be drafted by new IPL teams before mega auction - IN PICS
These six big names were not retained by the current IPL teams.
Shreyas Iyer
"Shreyas is likely to become captain of the Ahmedabad franchise. He is an important player and will be drafted to a new team. I won't be surprised to see him lead Ahmedabad as he has already captained Delhi Capitals," said Chopra. (Source: Twitter)
Rashid Khan
"Rashid Khan is second in the pecking order. I don't think his name will reach the auction table. He did not want to stay at SunRisers Hyderabad as he has been already approached by a new franchise with a better salary," Chopra said. (Source: Twitter)
KL Rahul
"I feel KL Rahul will not be able reach the auction. Punjab Kings wanted to retain him but he didn't want to. I think he is going to Lucknow, and will become the captain of the new team," said Chopra. (Source: Twitter)
Ishan Kishan
Aakash Chopra said that Ishan Kishan's stocks are a bit high at the moment. So he may not really show up at the auctions and will be signed by two of the teams. (Source: Twitter)
David Warner
"David Warner will not make it to the auction either. He is a proven match-winner. He has a lot of experience, has won a lot of games, and has scored 600 odds runs in so many seasons. You won't find a more consistent player than him," Aakash said. (Source: Twitter)
Yuzvendra Chahal
"Yuzvendra Chahal is another player who might go to Ahmedabad," said Chopra. Chahal has been stellar performer for RCB over the last six years and his non-retention surprised everyone. (Source: Twitter)
