IPL 2022 MEGA ACUTION

IPL 2022 Mega Auction has been concluded on 12 and 13 of the February. Fans have been desperately waiting for this mega auction as it turns IPL more interesting. From IPL 2022 There will  be 10 teams in the action with addition of two more teams Gujrat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants. This makes IPL even more itense and drama will be more. Total of 204 Players have been sold and 550 Crores have been spent in the IPL Mega Auction.  In which the most expensive player was Ishan Kishan worth of 15.25 CRORES bought by Mumbai Indians followed by this Deepak Chahar worth 14 CRORES bought by CSK, and Shreyas Iyer worth of 12.25 CRORES bought by KKR. 

SQUAD ANALYSIS 

1. KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS


If we look at the Kolkata Night Riders the squad has bunch of talent that they can easily rely on as they were doing from previous season. More or less they have bought their old players from the auction. Their problem is a wicket keeper batsman they do not have a experience wicket keeper batsman and their fast bowling unit doesn't seem strong to me except Pat Cummins. They have bought Shreyas Iyer which makes him a candidate for their skipper criteria although Pat Cummins have been also emerged as a great leader in the Ashes. But according to the situation Shreyas Iyer should be a preferred Captain as he did Captaincy for DC and took them into finals 

EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. ALEX HALES
2. VENKATESH IYER
3. NITISH RANA
4. SHREYAS IYER (C)
5. SHELDON JACKSON (WK)
6. ANDRE RUSSELL 
7. SUNIL NARINE
8. PAT CUMMINS 
9. VARUN CHAKRAVARTHY 
10. UMESH YADAV
11. SHIVAM MAVI


2. ROYAL CHALLENGER BANGALORE 

Moreover the RCB has done the pretty same thing they have bought their old players. RCB Fast bowling unit really looks good With Harshal Patel who was a purple cap holder followed by Mohd Siraj and Josh Hazlewood  present in the line up. David Willey and Jason Behrendroff are good skilled bowlers but they don't have much IPL experience.  Again RCB is relying with the top order on Faf Du Plessis and Virat Kohli and Glenn Maxwell is only hope in the middle order. The finisher factor is still missing for RCB and spin department is also depending on Hasaranga . No doubt he has been a stunning spin bowler and done a really good job although he hasn't played IPL much. There is too much dependency on young inexperienced players.

EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. FAF DU PLESSIS (C)
2. VIRAT KOHLI
3. ANUJ RAWAT
4. GLENN MAXWELL 
5. DINESH KARTIK (WK)
6. MAHIPAL LORMOR
7. SHAHBAZ AHMED 
8. WANINDU HASARANGA
9. HARSHAL PATEL
10. MOHD. SIRAJ
11. JOSH HAZLEWOOD 

3. CHENNAI SUPER KINGS 


The defending titles have changed their squad with a lot of young players in their squad. This time DU Plessis and Raina one of the oldest CSK players will not be there. Even Suresh Raina knows as Mr.IPL has gone unsold in the auction. I would preferably say that the team from the previous edition looked more stronger than the present one. Lack of depth in the bowling. The Top of the order is fine  some of the old player such as Bravo, Jadega are there. They have also bought Deepak Chahar by spending 14 Crores and Mastermind Ms Dhoni himself can find best in the squad and get good Results. 

EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. RUTURAJ GAIKAWAD 
2. DEVON CONWAY 
3. MOEEN ALI
4. AMBATI RAYDU
5. SHIVAM DUBE
6. RAVINDRA JADEGA 
7. MS DHONI (WK&C)
8. DWAYNE BRAVO
9. MITCHELL SANTNER
10. DEEPAK CHAHAR
11. R. HANGARGEKAR

4. LUCKNOW SUPER GIANTS 

Lucknow Super Giants would be debuting for the first time in the IPL and hence they have made sure that their squad looks good enough to compete in the world's best t20 league. Their squad has been one of the balanced squad. The management really had a good buys in their squad with good young and experienced IPL players. They have many all rounders in team.  Also they do not have proper batsman other than KL and Quinton at the top but hopefully this should not be an big issue.I think with the right guidance of KL Rahul this team can do wonders in the IPL 2022.

EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. QUINTON DE KOCK (WK)
2 . KL RAHUL (C)
3. MANISH PANDEY/ MANAN VOHRA 
4. DEEPAK HOODA
5. KRUNAL PANDYA
6. MARCUS STONNIS 
7. JASON HOLDER 
8. K. GOWTHAM 
9. RAVI BISHNOI
10. MARK WOOD / D. CHAMEERA 
11. AVESH KHAN 

5. DELHI CAPITALS 

Delhi Capitals are banged with yet another amazing squad as previous season. As in the early auction their major players were bought by other franchise which are Shikhar Dhawan, R. Ashwin, Shreyas Iyer, Kagiso Rabada but still they have managed to build a good squad for competition.They have bought the ICC T2O player of the tournament David Warner and Shardul Thakur in a high price of 10.75 Crores and also the left arm spinner Kuldeep.Their issue might be death bowling beacuse they don't have death specialists except Nortje. All together I can say that it is the most complete squad for the IPL 2022 and a team which can easily dominate others.

EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. DAVID WARNER 
2. PRITHVI SHAW
3. KS BHARAT/ YASH DHULL
4. MITCHELL MARSH 
5. RISHABH PANT (C&WK)
6. ROVMAN POWELL
7. AXAR PATEL 
8. SHARDUL THAKUR 
9. ANRICH NORTJE 
10. KULDEEP YADAV
11. CHETAN SAKARIYA 


6.  PUNJAB KINGS


The Punjab have made sure that they have picked a bunch of players which have been doing well in the T20 Cricket. They have changed their entire squad from previous season. Adding of senior players such as Shikhar Dhawan and Johnny Bairstow,  Kagiso Rabada make this squad looking dangerous. But there have been issues such as their Captaincy issue has not yet solved there is no experienced captain in the squad. Shikhar use to Captain Sunrises Hyderabad but he was not successful. Adding to this insufficient back up players, they surely make a strong and balanced playing XI but other than them backup is not strong. These factors can affect them in the future. 

EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. SHIKHAR DHAWAN (C)
2. MAYANK AGARWAL 
3. JOHNY BAIRSTOW (WK)
4. LIAM LIVINGSTONE
5. SHARUKH KHAN
6. ODEAN SMITH
7. HARPREET BRAR
8. KAGISO RABADA 
9. RAHUL CHAHAR 
10. ARSHDEEP SHARMA
11. SANDEEP SHARMA 


7. MUMBAI INDIANS 

Mumbai Indians is  the most successful franchise in the IPL. This franchise is known for his one of the most dominating and the most balanced in the IPL. The amount of trust and Mumbai Indians have showed their young players that in return they turn into beast and give match winning performances. This time around all those players who originated from Mumbai Indians have been sold to different franchises such as one of them is Krunal and Hardik ,  Rahul Chahar was also building his path under MI in the IPL but bought by different franchise. Quinton De Kock has been bought by Lucknow. However they have bought Ishaan Kishan once again worth of 15.25 crores showing absolute amount of trust on him. Mumbai Indians have completed changed their team squad. They have bought Archer but he will not be available in 2022. So other than Bumrah their bowling department looks weak. Total dependce on the top opders , middle order looks bleak with inexperienced players except Pollard.Spin department also look fragile. However the name in the middle order such as Tim David and Daniel Sams are really known for their power hitting but in the IPL they don't have shown anything. Other than this we can never underestimate the Mumbai Indians they have known building their team with their players and hopefully they will try to do this time also.

EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. ROHIT SHARMA (C)
2. ISHAAN KISHAN (WK)
3. SURYAKUMAR YADAV 
4. N.TILAK VARMA
5. DANIEL SAMS
6. KIERON POLLARD 
7. TIM DAVID
8. MAYANK MARKANDE
9. MURGAN ASHWIN
10. TYMAL MILLS
11. JASPRIT BUMRAH 

8. GUJRAT TITANS 
Gujrat Titans will be the second new addition to the Indian Premier League.The Gujrat titans have a an amazing squad. All of  them are young lads with great energy filled in them. Bowling definitely looks good as they have Shami, Rashid Khan and Lockie Ferguson. Hardik Pandya is all to set to lead them and it will be very challenging to him to lead in IPL. Middle Order looks bleak as they depends on Hardik Pandya and he was also out of form in the previous T2O tournament. Spin department looks completely dependent on Rashid Khan. Other than him no major spinner. But comparing from other franchise they still have a good ability guys present with them.


EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. JASON ROY
2. SHUBMAN GILL
3. DAVID MILLER
4. WRIDDHIMAN SAHA (WK)
5. VIJAY SHANKAR
6. HARDIK PANDYA (C)
7. RAHUL TEWATIA 
8. RASHID KHAN
9. VARUN AARON/ JAYANT YADAV
10. MOHD SHAMI
11. LOCKIE FERGUSON 


9. RAJASTHAN ROYALS 

Rajasthan has also made a squad with some talented players in their squad. They really had a good buys in the auction.  Some of the extreme taleted and experienced players has added in their squad. The problem lacks in the middle order they don't have a experience middle order players. The opening pair is still a fuss according to me there are 3 players who can open so its a question of which pair will open. Other than this bowling of Rajasthan Royals are top notch which includes Ashwin and Chahal in the spin department. When it come to fast bowling the New Zealand superstar Trent Bolt and Prasidh Krishna has been picking up goood these days.

EXPECTED PLAYING XI

1. JOS BUTTLER (WK)
2. DEVDUTT PADIKKAL
3. YASHASHVI JAISWAL 
4. SANJU SAMSON (C)
5. SHIMRON HETMYER
6. JIMMY NEESHAM
7. R.ASHWIN
8. Y.CHAHAL
9. NAVDEEP SAINI
10. PRASIDH KRISHNA
11. TRENT BOLT

10. SUNRISES HYDERABAD 


I would preferably doubt that Sunrises have made a strong squad in this mega auction.  Yet the some of the players have the ability.  Spin department looks bleak with only Sundar present there. Fast bowling unit also is dependent on Bhumneshwar Kumar , lack of middle order depth. Pooran is in good form these days if he continues then that shouldnot be an problem, Openers are still not yet confirmed. They have something missing in their every department. But if youngster can pull over it will be exciting to see SRH in the IPL.

1. RAHUL TRIPATHI 
2. AIDEN MARKRAM
3. KANE WILLIAMSON (C)
4. ABHISHEK SHARMA
5. NICHOLAS POORAN (WK)
6. ABDUL SAMAD
7. WASHINGTON SUNDAR
8. MARCO JANSEN
9. BHUMNESHWAR KUMAR
10. UMAR MALIK
11. S.GOPAL 


The Indain Premier league 2022 will be interesting as team have changed their squad and that makes it more challenging. Adding of two more teams will be more difficult league. So a lot more coming in the Indian Premier Legaue.

STRANGER THINGS

I recently completed Netflix All time Thriller Stranger Things Season 4. Yeah I know it's late but it's better to be late than never. We all have that one comfort show and we must mutually agree that Stranger Things is that one. It still feels that it was yesterday when my friend recommended me to watch stranger things but I hesitated because if the horror elements but eventually ended up loving it. As a child it was exciting as well as equally dangerous because of  its horror elements. But after spending hours watching it found it even more interesting.  From Getting Shocked by seeing the Powers of ELEVEN to laughing hard on the jokes of Dustin. Feeling on the edge of the seat whenever they go in the upside down and beat the ultimate threat around the Hawkins. As an adult it felt like now I would have no affection for Stranger Things but after completing it I do realize its one of the most attractive shows. The Cast of this show is one of the most happening element

YOUNG TALENT DISPLAY OF IPL

IPL is the the world's most famous t2O international league where players show their amazing cricketing skills. Young players also get the opportunity to show their skills and make a perfect base. These are list of young guns who showed brilliant performance and might be a major performer in the upcoming seasons of the IPL. 1.  RUTURAJ GAIKAWAD (CSK) Ruturaj has been the best batsman for me in the whole ipl tournament. The consistency in his performance has been up to the mark. An opener for Csk who hardly got to play in the previous season , showed his ultimate class in this season . Ruturaj had a great opening partnership with Faf Du Plessis. He also scored a hundred in the IPL against Rajasthan Royals. Ruturaj Gaikawad is the leading run scorer of the IPL. We can say that  Gaikawad played a major role in winning title for CSK this year.  2.  HARSHAL PATEL (RCB) The game changer for the RCB team. Harshal Patel has been the best bowler of the entire season. He is the p
