Marco Jansen IPL 2025

Marco Jansen is expected to be one of the most sought-after players in the upcoming IPL 2025 auction, scheduled for November 24-25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. 

His recent performances, particularly in the third T20I against India, have significantly bolstered his profile. 

Here are three key reasons why Jansen will attract high demand from various franchises:

1. Outstanding Recent Performance

In the third T20I against India on November 13, 2024, Marco Jansen delivered a spectacular all-round display. 

He recorded impressive bowling figures of 1 wicket for 28 runs in four overs, showcasing his ability to control the game with his left-arm pace. 

However, it was his batting that truly captivated audiences; he scored a blistering 54 runs off just 17 balls.

 This performance not only highlighted his dual-threat capability but also demonstrated his potential to change the course of a match single-handedly.

2. Versatile All-Rounder Skill Set

Jansen’s value as an all-rounder cannot be overstated. At just 24 years old, he has already shown that he can contribute significantly with both bat and ball. 

His recent batting form adds depth to any team’s lower order, which has been a challenge for many franchises in previous seasons. 

For instance, teams like the Mumbai Indians have struggled to find reliable lower-order hitters, and Jansen’s explosive batting could fill that gap effectively. 

Moreover, his left-arm pace bowling complements his batting skills, making him a versatile option for teams looking to strengthen their bowling attack while also enhancing their batting lineup.

3. Strategic Fit for Multiple Franchises

With his release from Sunrisers Hyderabad ahead of the IPL 2025 auction, multiple franchises are likely to target Jansen due to his potential fit within their strategies. 

Teams such as Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) see him as a prime candidate to replace Mitchell Starc, who was released after an underwhelming season. 

KKR’s need for a left-arm pacer aligns perfectly with Jansen’s skill set. Similarly, franchises like Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants are expected to show interest due to their respective needs for both pace and middle-order batting strength. 

The competition for Jansen’s services is expected to drive up his auction price significantly.
