The 12th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is likely to get underway on March 29. However, the venue for the tournament is yet to be decided with United Arab Emirates (UAE) being the most probable place. It has also been learned that the auction for the next season will take place in Jaipur on December 18 and only 70 players (20 overseas and 50 <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-teams/india/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Indians</a>) will be up for grabs.

Despite the auction being a shortened one this time, all eyes will be on the prices at which the cricketers will be sold. While a number of youngsters will go under the hammer, there will also be also a few retired players, who will be listed and a few of them may fetch large bids. In our article, we take you through three probable retired internationals, who can go big in the auction.

(Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Last season, Royals Challengers Bangalore (RCB), captained by <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/michael-clarke-doesnt-want-to-blame-virat-kohli-on-tiff-with-umpires-in-melbourne/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Virat Kohli</a>, picked up Brendon McCullum for INR 3.60 crores from a base price of INR 2 crore. But, he couldn’t quite live up to expectations and managed only 127 runs in six matches at an average of 21.16 with a top score of 43. Ahead of the forthcoming season, the franchise decided to free him of his services.

It means that teams will now have a fresh chance of going after him in the auction. The 37-year-old hasn’t had the worst of years. He played for Trinbago Knight Riders in the Caribbean Premier League, having notched 343 runs in 13 matches at an average of 26.38. He is currently captaining the Rajputs in the T10 League in Sharjah and has shown that he hasn&#8217;t run out of gas.

(Photo: Surjeet Yadav/IANS)</figcaption>

The Barbados-born cricketer has a fair amount of experience playing in the cash-rich IPL. The 35-year-old has plied his trade in 91 matches in which he has notched nearly 2400 runs. Smith has thus far represented <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/thug-life-hardik-pandya-reacts-to-mumbai-indians-savage-response/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mumbai Indians</a>, Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Lions after making his debut back in the inaugural edition in 2008, but he found no buyers last time around.

In the CPL, playing for Barbados Tridents, he racked up 174 runs in eight encounters with a top score of 58 against St Lucia Stars. Smith is currently plying his trade for Northern Warriors in the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t10-league-2018-match-10-punjabi-legends-vs-bengal-tigers-fantasy-tips/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">T10 League</a> at Sharjah Cricket Ground. Albeit he has had a rough phase of late, the franchises can take a gamble with him bearing in mind his decent past records in the T20 extravaganza.

The Black Cap was listed in the IPL auction for INR 75 lakhs last time. Nevertheless, he remained unsold, much to his agony. He proved his credentials by becoming the leading run scorer in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), playing for defending champions Islamabad United. The right-hander notched 435 runs in 11 matches at a healthy average of 43.50 and a jaw-dropping strike-rate of 182.

Ronchi followed it up with some useful knocks for Kabul Zwanan, the runners-up of the inaugural Afghanistan Premier League (APL). The 37-year-old is currently playing for Punjabi Legends in the T10 League. The wicketkeeper-batsman may not have on his side, but as far as wielding magic on the cricket pitch is concerned, Ronchi can still compete against the best in the business.
