IPL Auction: Will these 5 wicketkeepers change teams?

Before the IPL auction, the future of many big wicketkeepers is in limbo. Players like KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, and Ishan Kishan can command bids worth crores. Will Pant go to Chennai as Dhoni's successor? Know the full news.

Mumbai: There is just one day left for the announcement of the players to be retained before the IPL mega auction. So far no team has officially announced anything, but many rumors are flying in the air. These include KL Rahul, Mohammed Shami, and the last IPL-winning captain Shreyas Iyer. But this time if the teams leave these wicketkeepers, then other teams can buy them by spending crores of rupees. Let's see who these wicketkeepers are.

KL Rahul: His break up with Lucknow is almost certain, and in such a situation, there is expected to be a big competition in the IPL to buy KL Rahul. It is believed that RCB will be ready to buy Rahul at any cost and Rahul will be the captain of RCB.

Rishabh Pant: According to media reports, Delhi Capitals have not yet shown any interest in retaining Rishabh Pant. If Pant comes to the auction, it is believed that Chennai Super Kings will try to buy him first. Chennai is looking at Pant as the successor of MS Dhoni.

Ishan Kishan: Mumbai bought Ishan Kishan at a record price, but this time there is less chance of retaining him. If Kishan, who is facing some problems with BCCI, comes in the auction, then many teams including Gujarat Titans will be ready to buy him. Kishan can be the successor of the aging Wriddhiman Saha in Gujarat.

Jos Buttler: If Rajasthan Royals do not retain him, then many teams will compete to buy Jos Buttler. If he comes in the auction, Mumbai Indians will be ready to buy him at any cost.

Dhruv Jurel: He does not get much chance to keep wickets in Rajasthan, but there will be many teams in the auction for the Indian Test team's backup wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel. His good batting and wicketkeeping performance in the Test series against England has increased his price.
