Mumbai Indians

Squad strength: 25 (overseas 8)

Players bought: Gerald Coetzee (INR 5 crore), Nuwan Thushara (INR 4.8 crore), Dilshan Madushanka (INR 4.6 crore), Mohammad Nabi (INR 1.5 crore), Shreyas Gopal (INR 20 lakh), Naman Dhir (INR 20 lakh), Anshul Kamboj (INR 20 lakh), Shivalik Sharma (INR 20 lakh)

The wins: Mumbai have always liked their overseas fast bowlers, and it was no different this time. They got Gerald Coetzee, who can also bat lower down the order, and the Sri Lankan duo Dilshan Madushanka and Nuwan Thushara. They also picked up Shreyas Gopal as a back-up to Piyush Chawla.

The misses: In hindsight, they could have bid for Wanindu Hasaranga as they may end up playing only three overseas players in their XI.

Full squad
  • Openers: Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan (wk)
  • Middle order: Hardik Pandya (capt), Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Dewald Brevis, Tim David, Nehal Wadhera, Vishnu Vinod (wk)
  • Allrounders: Romario Shepherd, Mohammad Nabi, Shams Mulani, Shivalik Sharma, Anshul Kamboj, Naman Dhir
  • Fast bowlers: Jasprit Bumrah, Jason Behrendorff, Arjun Tendulkar, Akash Madhwal, Gerald Coetzee, Dilshan Madushanka, Nuwan Thushara
  • Spinners: Piyush Chawla, Kumar Kartikeya, Shreyas Gopal

Punjab Kings

Squad strength: 25 (overseas 8)

Players bought: Harshal Patel (INR 11.75 crore), Rilee Rossouw (INR 8 crore), Chris Woakes (INR 4.2 crore), Ashutosh Sharma (INR 20 lakh), Vishwanath Singh (INR 20 lakh), Shashank Singh (INR 20 lakh), Tanay Thyagarajan (INR 20 lakh), Prince Choudhary (INR 20 lakh)

The wins: Chris Woakes and Harshal Patel add value as bowlers who can also bat. Rilee Rossouw is a back-up for Liam Livingstone.

The misses: They could have bought back Shahrukh Khan - they lack an Indian middle-order batter. Towards the end, it got a bit chaotic. They first bought Shashank Singh, then realised they didn't want him, and tried to unsuccessfully un-buy him. It might not have hurt them but it was a bit embarrassing.

Full squad
  • Openers: Shikhar Dhawan (capt), Prabhsimran Singh (wk)
  • Middle order: Jonny Bairstow (wk), Rilee Rossouw, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Liam Livingstone, Atharva Taide, Harpreet Bhatia, Ashutosh Sharma, Shashank Singh
  • Allrounders: Rishi Dhawan, Sam Curran, Sikandar Raza, Shivam Singh, Chris Woakes, Harshal Patel, Vishwanath Singh, Tanay Thyagarajan
  • Fast bowlers: Kagiso Rabada, Nathan Ellis, Arshdeep Singh, Vidwath Kaverappa,
  • Spinners: Harpreet Brar, Rahul Chahar, Prince Choudhary

Rajasthan Royals

Squad strength: 22 (overseas 8)

Players bought: Rovman Powell (INR 7.4 crore), Shubham Dubey (INR 5.8 crore), , Nandre Burger (INR 50 lakh), Tom Kohler-Cadmore (INR 40 lakh), Abid Mushtaq (INR 20 lakh)

The wins: Rovman Powell, who leads Barbados Royals in the CPL, will add muscle to the middle order. Nandre Burger and Tom Kohler-Cadmore at their base prices are excellent back-ups for Trent Boult and Jos Buttler, respectively.

The misses: They spent more than 90% of their purse on the first two buys (Powell and Shubham Dubey), With the remaining, INR 1.30 crore, they couldn't buy the allrounder they were missing. Maybe they can coax a few overs out of Powell. Also, they already have Riyan Parag, who had an excellent Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (279 runs and 11 wickets in 10 matches). Their squad size of 22 is the smallest among the ten teams.

Full squad
  • Openers: Jos Buttler (wk), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Tom Kohler-Cadmore (wk)
  • Middle order: Sanju Samson (capt, wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Dhruv Jurel (wk), Donovan Ferreira, Kunal Singh Rathore (wk), Shubham Dubey
  • Allrounders: Riyan Parag
  • Fast bowlers: Avesh Khan, Prasidh Krishna, Kuldeep Sen, Navdeep Saini, Sandeep Sharma, Trent Boult, Nandre Burger
  • Spinners: R Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Adam Zampa, Abid Mushtaq

Squad strength: 25 (overseas 8)

Players bought: Alzarri Joseph (INR 11.5 crore), Yash Dayal (INR 5 crore), Lockie Ferguson (INR 2 crore), Tom Curran (INR 1.5 crore), Swapnil Singh (INR 20 lakh), Saurav Chauhan (INR 20 lakh)

The wins: Lockie Ferguson's buy in the accelerated round.

The losses: Lack of an experienced wristspinner to replace Wanindu Hasaranga and a specialist death bowler.

Full squad
  • Openers: Faf du Plessis, Virat Kohli, Will Jacks
  • Middle order: Rajat Patidar, Suyash Prabhudessai, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Anuj Rawat (wk)
  • Allrounders: Cameron Green, Glenn Maxwell, Mahipal Lomror, Manoj Bhandage, Tom Curran, Swapnil Singh

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Squad strength: 25 (overseas 8)

Players bought: Travis Head (INR 6.8 crore), Wanindu Hasaranga (INR 1.5 crore), Pat Cummins (INR 20.5 crore), Jaydev Unadkat (INR 1.6 crore), Akash Singh (INR 20 lakh), Jhathavedh Subramanyan (INR 20 lakh)

The wins: Sunrisers out-bid four other teams to get Pat Cummins for a whopping INR 20.5, while Wanindu Hasaranga, at his base price, was a steal. Travis Head was another big buy and can replace either Mayank Agarwal or Abhishek Sharma, depending on their form, at the top.

The misses: It will be nit-picking but perhaps they could have looked for a back-up for Abdul Samad.

Full squad
  • Openers: Travis Head, Mayank Agarwal, Abhishek Sharma, Anmolpreet Singh
  • Middle order: Aiden Markram, Rahul Tripathi, Glenn Phillips (wk), Abdul Samad, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Upendra Yadav (wk)
  • Allrounders: Marco Jansen, Washington Sundar, Sanvir Singh, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Shahbaz Ahmed
  • Fast bowlers: Pat Cummins, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Fazalhaq Farooqi, T Natarajan, Umran Malik, Jaydev Unadkat, Akash Singh
  • Spinners: Wanindu Hasaranga, Mayank Markande, Jhathavedh Subramanyan

I was half expecting them to list Singh as a miss, and clarify that they were talking about the other Singh, not the one on they drafted.

Not sure how you can do that if you are a competent club, but it is pretty humorous if they did legitimately bid on the wrong one.

He will feel pretty awkward attending pre season training.

wanted the 20yo keeper , got the 32yo all rounder

Looks like DC put in a bid for Sumeet Varma thinking it was Sumeet Kumar but realised their mistake in time.

I guess he still gets $35K out of it. I'd accept some awkwardness for that sort of money.

I may have stuffed up the conversion amount, but any amount is still better than nothing.

Interesting that they have still only announced the fixture for the first 21 games.

If they make the Rounds :-

Game 1-5 all teams play

Game 6-10 RCB play twice , LSG on Bye

Game 11-15 LSG play twice , KKR on Bye

Game 16-20 DC play twice , LSG on Bye

Generally play double headers on weekends so not sure how that ties in.

I guess once the AFL Round 1 is sorted out they will open up the IPL game.
