In the T20 tournament, many Bangladeshi players rose to the occasion and excelled for their team. There are many Bangladeshi players who stand a decent chance of being selected in the forthcoming auction and joining the IPL in 2023.
Six players from Bangladesh have signed up for the IPL 2023 Auction, which is scheduled for December 23. As per the latest update, 991 players have signed up overall for the IPL auction. But there are now just 87 open positions.
It must be noted that a total of 85 IPL franchises have released players, making them available to the 10 teams as well. Know the 3 Bangladesh players who might get high bids during the IPL 2023 auction.
Litton Das
Litton Das typically bats higher in the middle order because he can keep the scoreboard moving. He plays the game with style and superb defensive technique. The primary batter has demonstrated his ability to work hard on the field.
In the absence of Tamim Iqbal, Litton Das is in charge of the ODI team and will be motivated to succeed. In the T20 World Cup match against India, he came close to committing a theft. But in the end, the rain proved to be a nuisance. However, his 27-ball 60 is still fresh in the minds of IPL scouts and may draw some bids.
Taskin has been phenomenal for Bangladesh in the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 as he has scalped eight wickets in just three matches. The pacer is capable of bamboozling batters and has the potential of providing the side with vital breakthroughs.
Taskin Ahmed
He is undoubtedly a talent to keep an eye on, and IPL teams must be monitoring his recent short-format appearances with the national team. Franchises looking for a seamer will be eager to secure his services prior to the upcoming IPL season.
After battling ailments, Bangladeshi pacer Taskin Ahmed has regained his speed and form. He is currently among the top bowlers in the Indian subcontinent.
In addition to bowling faster than 140kph, he can also bat. He will be out for the first ODI due to injury, but he will return for the second and third matches in addition to the two-match Test series. He has plenty of time to make an impression.
Shakib Al Hasan
Shakib Al Hasan, the captain of Bangladesh and arguably its best player ever remain unsold during the IPL mega auction. The star all-rounder has played a crucial role in the IPL throughout his time with teams like Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
Furthermore, the all-rounder has shown amazing ball abilities throughout the current World Cup in Australia, and his captaincy has been excellent.
In addition, the Bangladeshi cricketer has a tonne of experience playing in the shorter format, so finding a franchise would not be a problem for him.
