Here are the three players who are expected to break the bank in IPL 2021 Auction:
Steve Smith: The premier Australia batsman is expected to grab the attention of the franchise owners in the upcoming auction. Smith was released by Rajasthan Royals ahead of the auction after an underwhelming 2020 season. He has a rich experience of playing IPL with 95 matches. He might be under the radar of Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore who need an overseas batsman in their squad. The battle of grabbing Smith is going to be a highlight on Auction day.
Glenn Maxwell: The destructive batsman was bought for a whopping INR 10.75 Crore last season by Kings XI Punjab but he failed to live up to the hype and scored just 108 runs in 13 matches. However, he has a reputation of winning the match on his own, several franchise owners will set their sights on getting Maxwell in their squad.
David Malan: The no.1 ranked batsman in ICC T20 listings is expected to run riot in the auction ceremony. Many teams are in search of an opening batsman and what's better to buy the best in the business. Malan has been outstanding in the shortest format of the game in the past couple of years. The English opener has set his base price for INR 1.5 Crore but he is expected to go for a hefty amount on February 18.
