The most sought after player in the auction.Being an all rounder and an indian player one franchise might decide to spend the full 2million dollars cap on him.
Mahela Jayawardene
He was the captain of kochi tuskers kerala. Now he is being touted as the second most valuable player in the auction as most teams would like to have him in their side.Sides which lacks depth in their middle order could go for him.Chances are for Sahara Pune Warriors and Kolkata Knight Riders.
Brad Hodge
Many dramatic games in last years IPL when he displayed his all round skills taking kochi tuskers to the winning end had raised his profile in the IPL auction.Player with the most experience in twenty 20 around the world , he woulds be a top buy in the auction.
Michael Klinger
Did not get much chances to display his skills last year and the many chances that he got was wasted.Needs to be seen how high the teams are likely to go for him. Would not be a high buy.
Owais Shah
this england middle order batsman can stabilize the innings in one go. but as most of the teams will have a set side there would not be much more room for him. if taken will have to sit on the benches.
