The Indian Premier League (IPL) is one of the biggest and most competitive T20 leagues in the world. Some of the best players in the world, along with local uncapped players also feature in the tournament. The franchises before the start of every season look to revamp their squad in the auction. Some players are retained, and others get released by every franchise prior to the auction.

IPL 2022 was yet another edition that provided competition, quality, and a platform for promising players. However, some players have failed to live up to the expectations. These players were either sidelined from the playing XI or fell short of the standards set by themselves in the previous seasons. This could perhaps trigger their current franchises to release them in the next auction. However, these cricketers showed glimpses of quality in the past, and this could attract other franchises to buy them for big amounts.

A promising batter from Chennai, Shahrukh Khan, has been one of the important players of Tamil Nadu in the domestic circuit over the last year or so. He has over 500 runs in eight first-class matches at an average of over 46, and over 700 runs at an average of over 43 in 33 List A matches.

Shahrukh established a reputation for himself for his big-hitting abilities. He was also part of the Tamil Nadu team that won the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in the 2020-21 and 2021-22 seasons. His knocks played a crucial role for Tamil Nadu in winning the quarterfinal and final of the tournament in 2020-21. He also secured the title in the following year with his last ball six in the final.

Shahrukh was picked by Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the IPL 2021. He showed glimpses of his power-hitting abilities, but could not quite carry that into the following season. His lack of consistency to score runs has also been a matter of concern. He scored 153 runs at an average of 21.85, and a strike rate of 134.21 in 2021. And in 2022, he scored 117 runs at 16.71 with a strike rate of 108.33.
