IPL 2023: So which batters can turn up the heat at the mini-auction?
1. Rilee Rossouw:
Rilee Rossouw is in the prime of his cricketing career. He recently smashed two back-to-back centuries and is a hot topic in the cricketing world. His truckload of experience in the T20 circuit and also his six-hitting abilities make him a very special batter. He recently smashed a power-packed knock of 109 runs in 56 balls. This was the fourth fastest hundred in a T20 World Cup. The left-handed batter can attract huge bids in the IPL 2023 auction.
2. Mayank Agarwal:
Mayank Agarwal is one of the leading opening batters in the Indian circuit. After amassing a truckload of runs in domestic competitions like Ranji Trophy among others, the 31-year-old proved his mettle in the Indian Premier League and also in the international circuit. Agarwal could attract huge bids at the upcoming auction (If Punjab release him).
Talking about the lucrative T20 tournament, Mayank has featured in 113 games and accumulated 2327 runs at a strike rate of 134.28. He has the ability to take top-quality attacks to the cleaners and can also steady the ship if the team is in trouble.

3. Harry Brook
An upcoming rising star of England, Harry Brook made quite an impression in T20I international. His best came against Pakistan during a recently concluded T20I series where he smashed an 81* in just 35 deliveries.
It might not be a surprise if teams in IPL splash huge amounts of money to secure the services of Harry Brook. He is a widely talented cricketer from England and had notched up a century in the ICC U-19 ODI World Cup in 2018, against Bangladesh.
4. Philip Salt
Just like Brooks, Philip Salt has also left quite an impression especially in the 20-over format. Since making his debut, Salt has stroked 235 runs in just 12 T20I games. He averages at 23.5 with his strike-rate being 164.34. The right-handed batter has also stroked two fifties in the shortest format of the game. Salt is expected to fetch a huge bidding in the upcoming IPL 2023 Auction.

5. Reeza Hendricks
Reeza Hendricks has been a integral member of the South African squad for quite some time. The 33-year-old has solidified his place at the top of the order for his country’s team and has demonstrated his mettle on the international stage. In 48 T20I games, Hendricks has scored 1372 runs at a strike rate of 125.41. In T20I matches, Hendricks has demonstrated the ability to quickly switch gears when the scenario calls for it, and IPL franchises may try to add the star batter at the auction the following year.
