Over the years, the two giants have produced players who are on the verge of becoming world-class cricketers not only in the shortest format but also overall.

The IPL has been the most followed cricketing league. Along with being the most popular competition, it is also most lucrative of them of all. There have been several players who have sought million dollar contracts in the cash-rich league after performing exquisitely in the Australian T20 extravaganza.

Meanwhile, with the auction set to take place on December 18, there are certain players in the BBL who could get picked and then go on to perform well in the upcoming season to impress the franchises.

Jake Weatherald was unleashed in the previous season of the Big Bash League for Adelaide Strikers and made huge strides as a batsman. He was awarded the Man of the Match in the final for his whirlwind century. The left-hander has been shortlisted in the IPL auction and has a base price of 20 Lakhs and could ignite a bidding war among several franchises.

Weatherald accumulated 383 runs in 12 matches in his maiden appearance for the defending champions and scored a century and three fifties at an average of nearly 32. The 24-year old could be targeted by Kings XI Punjab who faced severe problems with their opening pair in the previous IPL edition.

Joe Denly made his England comeback on Sri Lanka tour this year. He was named in the Test squad to tour Sri Lanka, however, he failed to get a game. But he was included in the only T20 International against the same team and he straightaway made an impact. Denly has also been considerably successful in franchise cricket all over the globe.

In the previous season of the BBL, Denly was signed up as a replacement player for Jason Roy by the Sydney Sixers. The 32-year old soar above expectations, scoring 146 runs in four matches including a personal best of 72 not out in Sixers’ final game against the Melbourne Stars. The Englishman was also successful in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), ending up as the fourth highest run scorer.

The Kent-born batsman can also bowl leg-spin which could come handy to break long partnerships. An experienced campaigner like Denly could come in very handy for any IPL franchise and could spark good bidding wars, starting with the base price of Rs 1 Crore.

The one-half of McDermott brother was one of the most swashbuckling batsmen in the last season. Instead of following his father and brother’s footsteps, <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ben-mcdermott-smashes-a-reverse-hit-en-route-blazing-ton/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben McDermott</a> instead made a name for himself as a specialist batsman and a wicketkeeper.

He mustered a total of 480 runs in just 15 matches with a century in the previous season. In the 2016-17 edition of BBL, the 24-year old smashed 114 off just 52 balls to gun down a score of 222 successfully. Another performance which turned the spotlight on him was his innings of 67 runs off just 30 balls in the semi-final in the last leg against the Perth Scorchers for Hobart Hurricanes.

Although he has been below average in his short international career, his recent form in franchise cricket with a base price of 50 lakhs could draw for him millions in the upcoming IPL auction as an able middle order-batsman.
