Dynamic English opener Jason Roy has withdrawn from IPL 2022 citing bio-bubble fatigue. Roy informed about his decision to the Gujarat Lions earlier. The new franchise had bought the South Africa-born cricketer for INR 2 crore which was also his base price at the IPL 2022 mega auction.
It is indeed a huge blow for the Titans as the 2019 World Cup winner was in the form of his life having amassed 303 runs in six matches at the recently-concluded PSL 2022 averaging 50.50 that included two half-centuries representing the Quetta Gladiators. While Gujarat are yet to name a replacement, they do have some great options available. So, without further ado, here’s a look at five of them.
Five Replacement Options for Jason Roy in IPL 2022
1. Aaron Finch

Aaron Finch surprisingly went unsold at the IPL 2022 mega auction despite having led Australia to their maiden T20 World Cup triumph in the UAE a few months ago. No team was willing to buy him even at his base price of INR 1.5 crore. However, he now has a chance to open the innings for Gujarat Titans alongside youngster Shubman Gill.
Finch is currently the fifth-highest scorer in T20Is, having amassed 2,686 runs from 88 matches, and also has a wealth of experience under his belt playing for eight franchises in the marquee tournament between 2010 to 2020.
Therefore, the Australian white-ball captain could be a great option to replace Jason Roy for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League.
