3 Indian players RCB might target in IPL auction

KL Rahul

After a disappointing season, the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are set to part ways with captain KL Rahul ahead of the IPL mega auction. Reports suggest he won’t be retained and plans to enter the auction as a high-profile player. Following a loss to Sunrisers Hyderabad, LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka publicly criticized him, which may have influenced his departure.

If this happens, there is a chance that RCB might target him in the upcoming IPL mega-auction. However, KL Rahul is out of form now; if gets his form back, he will add depth to RCB’s batting lineup.

Rishabh Pant

Rishabh Pant, the top scorer for Delhi Capitals, is set to leave the franchise due to dissatisfaction with the proposed retention price. Despite a strong comeback last season with 446 runs, his potential departure raises concerns about the team’s future leadership and performance.

If he decides to part ways with DC, several franchises may target him, including RCB. They need a strong wicketkeeper-batter, and given his performance on the international stage, there is a good chance that RCB will pursue him in the upcoming IPL.

Washington Sundar

According to the new retention rules, each team can retain a maximum of six players, including uncapped players. As Sunrisers Hyderabad Teams have plenty of options available in their squads, such as Pat Cummins, Aiden Markram, Glen Phillips, Abhishek Sharma, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Heinrich Klaasen, and Travis Head.

As a result, it is possible that SRH may not retain their star all-rounder, Washington Sundar. If this happens, there is a strong likelihood that RCB will target him in the upcoming IPL mega auction.
