This Australian fast bowler was roped in by the Kolkata Knight Riders last season but was not able to deliver due to an injury. Starc, whose name is one among the fastest bowlers today, is a deadly bowler who can strike fear into the batsmen.

His consistent performances earned him the prestigious Man of the Tournament award in the 2015 Cricket World Cup, thus helping Australia claim the title.

With KKR releasing Starc, other franchises are on the lookout for this talented bowler.

Aaron Finch:

Finch, who currently captains the Australian Cricket Team in the limited overs cricket is very well known for his aggressive style of play. An excellent finisher, he has been released by the Kings XI Punjab ahead of the upcoming auction.

Though he had a poor run in IPL last season (he scored just 134 runs in 10 matches), this hard-hitter, who is the first batsman to score a 150 in a T20 international match, is still one among the few decent picks this season.
