The List of Top 3 batsman for the IPL mini-auction in detail;
-
Harry Brook
One of the most intriguing prospects in England cricket is Harry Brook. With his excellent batting performances this year, he has dominated the T20 circuit. The Yorkshire-born player scored 264 runs in 10 games during the Pakistan Super League 2022 with an astounding strike rate of 171.43. At the T20 Blast 2022, he put on a display of his daring stroke play, scoring 436 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of 93.4.
Brook was also awarded the man of the series award in the recently ended test match between Pakistan and England, where he played so many match-winning innings to give England a much-needed boost, So the IPL teams will surely have an eye on Harry Brook in the upcoming IPL Mini-auction.

Nicholas Pooran
The 27-year-old played 23 T20I matches in 2022 and amassed 582 runs at a 130.49 strike rate. Pooran has recovered his form playing for Trinidad in their home competition, despite the fact that he was in awful form during the recently finished T20 World Cup. Pooran can now top the charts at the upcoming auction provided he can maintain his current pace.
With their current form, he will surely become one of the top batsmen in the tournament and his ability to perform is what attracts the IPL teams to buy him and we are sure that he will be a top-class bid in the
-
Mayank Agarwal
Mayank Agarwal has amassed 2327 runs with a strike rate of 134.28 in 133 IPL games so far. One of the leaders of the Punjab team, the 31-year-old was also given a chance to play for the Indian national side due to his outstanding performance.
He is anticipated to make significantly more than 5 crores and may end up being one of the most expensive players available in the IPL 2023 auction. Teams are now set to engage in a bidding war to obtain Mayank’s services as Sunrisers hunt for a skipper, Chennai looks for someone to succeed Dhoni, and Gujarat looks for the ideal opening partner for Shubman Gill.
Agarwal is one of the top-class Indian batsmen who is a destructive opening batsman, who can start the innings in an impressive fashion, so teams who are looking for a destructive opener will fight for him and we can expect huge bidding in the IPL mini-auction 2023.
