Mitchell Starc
The Australian bowler brings incredible pace and accuracy in his pitches to his team. Starc is a nightmare for batters in crucial overs. At 34 years of age, he combines experience and skill, making him a valuable asset to any team. His impressive transfer price reflects his reputation as one of the most intimidating bowlers in the world.
Pat Cummins
Australian all-rounder Pat Cummins combines versatility and experience in his 30s. His ability to play under pressure makes him a valuable addition to any squad. He lives up to expectations and was also one of the most critical players in Australia’s 2023 World Cup-winning squad.
Daryl Mitchell
New Zealand all-rounder Daryl Mitchell is renowned for his explosive hitting and skillful medium-pace bowling. Mitchell’s ability to adapt to different situations makes him a valuable asset. His presence strengthens any team, adding balance and firepower to the line-up.
Harshal Patel
Harshal Patel is the most expensive Indian player in the IPL. The medium-pace bowler is the leader of his team’s attack. Patel is known for his variations and ability to take wickets consistently, making him a key player in the T20 format.
Based on Tamil cricket news, Harshal Patel is credited with 111 wickets in the IPL. But even this staggering figure has not helped his Punjab Kings team to have a solid run of form this season.
