As we approach the mid-point of the IPL, the discussion is turning to the IPL Best Players for the coming season. Here are some names you should keep an eye out for. Some of the players we have listed in this article are Jos Buttler and Yash Dhull. If you don’t know who these players are, read on to find out. In the end, you’ll see some players that you may have missed – and who should be in the starting XI for IPL 2022?
Yash Dhull
If there is one player who could make his mark in IPL 2022, it would be Yash Dhull. The right-handed opener has dominated domestic cricket and recently made history by hitting a century in both innings against Tamil Nadu. He has also scored 479 runs at an average of 119.8 in the Ranji Trophy. Punjab Kings were tempted to sign Dhull during the mega auction in Bengaluru last February, but decided against it after watching his recent performances. Dhull has revealed that he is targeting an international spot within 18 months. He has already made his debut in the Ranji Trophy against Tamil Nadu and scored two centuries in both innings.
Dhull, who was sold for Rs50 lakhs in the 2022 IPL Auction, has been a standout performer in the Indian U-19 World Cup. His knocks of 82 and 110 in the semi-finals secured India’s place in the final. He also managed to hit an unbeaten 110 against Australia in the semi-final, bringing his tally to 229 runs at an average of 76.3. That was third highest among all players.
Dhull has a bright future in the IPL. He has been associated with the Delhi Capitals Academy for seven years, and will share the dressing room with fellow U-19 World Cup captain Prithvi Shaw. The talented wicket-keeper will play a critical role in Delhi’s campaign. This year’s IPL season could be his best yet. While other players are trying to figure out how to score in the tournament, Dhull has set the tone.
Delhi’s Yash Dhull, a world cup winning captain, has tremendous potential and is an attractive option in the mega auction. Despite his positive test for COVID-19, Yash Dhull will surely attract plenty of franchises during the mega auction. After all, the U-19 captains of India have been selling for big money in the IPL. That could make him the highest-priced player in IPL 2022.
Jos Buttler
If you were to name one player from IPL 2022, Jos Buttler would be in the top three. He smashed a record 45 sixes during the season and has now reached 15 lakhs. During the same season, he won the Most Sixes in a Match award five times. If you have not heard of Jos Buttler, you’re missing out. Here’s why:
Jos Buttler was in the form of his life during the last season of the IPL. The Australian made the tournament history by scoring 863 runs in 17 games for Rajasthan Royals. Though the team lost in the final, the run chase was an exciting one and he contributed the most runs for his team. Buttler also won a number of awards during the closing ceremony, including the Most Valuable Player Award and the Most Outstanding Batting Player Award.
The IPL 2022 ended on Sunday evening. The Gujarat Titans beat the Rajasthan Royals by seven wickets. Hardik Pandya led the team with an all-round performance, picking up three wickets and scoring 34 runs with the bat. Jos Buttler was a favorite throughout the season and earned several awards. He was also named the ‘Most Valuable Player of the Season’ award, earning INR 10 lakh for this honor.
As one of the best players in the IPL, Jos Buttler deservedly won six individual prizes. His total net worth is over sixty lakhs. His two-year contract with the England Cricket Board (ECB) earns him around $2.6 million a year. He averaged 3.8 crores a season with the Mumbai Indians. The IPL is a very lucrative business for Jos Buttler and he has earned millions of dollars.
Buttler dominated the opening phase of the IPL with his unbeaten 106 against the Gujarat Lions in Qualifier 2. His innings of eighty-three runs was better than any other player’s in this season. Buttler also took home the Orange Cap award with his team. And his batting was so outstanding that he has a chance to reach the final of the IPL 2022.
