The concept of four foreigners in an Indian Premier League side holds huge significance. Over the years, foreign players have governed the IPL, with some big fishes gracing the cash-rich league. Once the IPL retention was done a few months earlier, several established foreigners were released by the existing eight teams ahead of the IPL 2022 mega auction. IPL 2022 will have 10 teams, and one will have more fun in store. On Tuesday, a total of 1,214 players registered for the auction. However, the IPL shortlisted 590 players based on the wishlist of the 10 teams. As a result, 10 players were registered in the marquee list (Rs. 2 crore base price). And there are some big foreign players on this marquee list. Teams will need to be careful regarding the foreign players’ purchases. On several occasions, we have seen players leave early for several reasons or pull out at the last moment. Besides, there are often international assignments on offer. Keeping all this in mind, getting the right names will be highly important. We decode 10 foreigners who could draw huge money in the auction on the same note.

DAVID WARNER

Three-time Orange Cap winner David Warner was a mainstay for the Sunrisers Hyderabad. The Aussie star scored consistently and led the side well. However, a forgetful 2021 saw Warner not only get stripped of his captaincy but also dropped. Warner, who helped Australia win the ICC T20 World Cup 2021, will be a massive player on offer in the auction. He is on the marquee list. So far, Warner has amassed 5,449 runs at 41.59. He has hit four tons and 50 fifties. Apart from 2021 and 2018 (absent), Warner smashed 500-plus runs every season from 2014 to 2020.
