IPL Auction 2024: 4 released middle-order batters who can earn big bucks in upcoming auction
Here are four middle-order batters who are the favorites to get massive prices in the mini-auction, despite their non-performances in the previous IPL season.
2. Shahrukh Khan
Punjab Kings (PBKS) have also released their lower-middle-order batter, Shahrukh Khan. Back in 2022, the right-handed batter was picked up for a whopping amount of INR 9 crore by the franchise. The Tamil Nadu stalwart failed to justify his price in the last two seasons while representing Punjab.
In 2022, he scored only 117 runs in eight matches at a dismal strike rate of 108.33 but the franchise didn’t lose faith in him. His 2023 performance was the last straw and this time, PBKS lost their patience and broke their association with the 28-year-old. This year, he accumulated only 156 runs in 13 innings at an average of 22.28.
Shahrukh didn’t look decent with his bat in the previous two seasons but he has the capability to play exceptional match-finishing knocks in the lower-middle-order. His exceptional batting quality might get him a massive amount again in the auction.
