IPL 2024: Best Indian XI from the auction

The IPL 2024 auction in Dubai on December 19 was a symphony of enthusiasm and calculations, as franchises competed heatedly for the finest stars in the event. An assemblage of outstanding Indian talents found new homes amid the flurry of bids and breakthroughs, generating excitement and anticipation among fans. 

As the dust settles and final squads take shape, it's time to assemble the perfect Indian XI, handpicked from the best of the crop who won IPL 2024 bids. Let's see who made it into the Best Indian XI from the IPL auction.

Here is the best Indian XI from the IPL 2024 auction:

1. KS Bharat

KS Bharat is a wonderful pick by the KKR team. His journey from one franchise to another continued and the Shah Rukh Khan-owned franchise has their backup keeper for Rahmanullah Gurbaz. KKR had tried out various options in IPL 2023 like Baba Indrajith, N Jagadeesan, and a few others, before deciding on KS Bharat. 

As an opener, he showed his hitting prowess for the RCB in IPL 2021 and then warmed the bench for the next two seasons for Gujarat Titans. He will hope to get regular chances with KKR this time, to show that he is not only a safe keeper but an excellent hitter in powerplays.
