27 players who were a part of IPL 2008 and will feature in 2020

#22 Shane Watson

Shane Watson

Shane Watson has played for RR, RCB and CSK so far. While he had a dismal run at RCB, his stints at the other two franchises have been highly fruitful as he has won trophies with both of them.

Watson is one of the most successful all-rounders in the history of the IPL as he has scored 3575 runs and has taken 92 wickets in 134 IPL games he has played so far.

#23 Dale Steyn

Dale Steyn has played for RCB, the Hyderabad-based franchise (earlier Deccan Chargers, now Sunrisers Hyderabad) and Gujarat Lions so far in the IPL. He went unsold for a couple of seasons as well, as he was not playing much international cricket and the franchises were not sure about his form.

The legendary South African fast bowler is, however, back in frame and is going to represent RCB in IPL 2020. Steyn has taken 96 wickets in 92 IPL matches at an average of 24.73.

#24 Lasith Malinga

Lasith Malinga

Despite being bought in the first-ever IPL auction, Lasith Malinga did not feature in the first season of the IPL. Thereafter, he has been a mainstay for the Mumbai Indians, which happens to be the only team that he has turned up for. The one season when he went unsold at auction (2018), MI brought back Slinga as the bowling consultant.

With 170 wickets in just 122 matches, Lasith Malinga is the highest wicket-taker in the history of the IPL and given the fact that he will turn up for MI again in 2020, it will take some doing to displace him anytime soon.
