IPL 2022: Ranking the teams based on their final squads

The IPL mega auction was full of action. As the team managements of different teams tried their best to form a formidable side, every franchise managed to fill up their minimum players’ quota. Now, it is up to the management and the captains how they utilize their resources.

IPL has been the most sought-after league in the history of the game. Even though international cricket has higher priority, IPL has been the go-to place for someone who tries to leave their mark. Now, it will be interesting to see how a new era begins.

With Shreyas Iyer and Deepak Chahar bagging multi-million deals, they will be looking forward to pushing their team over the victory line. Adding on, Rajasthan Royals has a new look and the fans will be praying for a turnaround. Meanwhile, here we rank the teams based on their final squads after the mega auction.

Ranking Teams Based on their Final Squads for IPL 2022:

10. Gujarat Titans

Just when the new franchises were given a choice to pick their draft, Gujarat Lions made an excellent move by opting for Hardik Pandya, Shubman Gill, and Rashid Khan. But, as the bidding was going on at the table, it was clear that they lacked planning. They had no idea about whom to pick and whom to leave.

This fact is solidified when they did not have any wicketkeepers till the final few hours of the auction. As a wicketkeeper is one of the most important positions, they needed to fill that slot. Moving on, the middle order lacks firepower as there might be too much pressure on David Miller and Hardik Pandya.

However, they have a solid bowling combination in the form of Mohammed Shami, Lockie Ferguson, and Alzarri Joseph. Hardik Pandya will have to rotate his bowlers with a plan so that they are not exhausted in the middle of the tournament. Rashid Khan’s experience will be priceless as well.
