IPL 2020: 3 players who could be surplus to Rajasthan Royals

Andrew Tye

In all likelihood, Andrew Tye could be a surplus for the Rajasthan Royals. They already have a balanced set of foreign players expected to play a pivotal role for them. The champions of the inaugural edition bagged his services for just INR 1 crore. However, he is expected to warm the benches for the majority of the tournament.

The Australian medium-pacer hogged the limelight in his debut IPL game for the Gujarat Lions in 2017 when he returned with exceptional figures of 5/17. He bagged 12 wickets in 6 matches and was bought by Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in the next season. He turned out to be their X factor in 2018 and won the purple cap with 24 wickets in 14 games. Tye had a woeful season in 2019 when he bagged just 3 wickets in 6 matches for KXIP and had to warm the benches for the majority of the season.
