#3 Marcus Stoinis

For Marcus Stoinis, a return to Mohali is certainly on the cards with Kings XI Punjab desperately in need of a hard-hitting all-rounder.
Stoinis began his IPL career with Delhi Daredevils in 2015 before spending three seasons (2016, 2017 and 2018) with Kings XI Punjab. He then moved to Royal Challengers Bangalore last season after being traded for Indian batsman Mandeep Singh.
But the 30-year-old, who was priced at INR 6.2 crore, managed just 211 runs while picking up two wickets in 10 matches for the Virat Kohli-led franchise in 2019. He was released by the franchise ahead of the upcoming 2020 auction.
Given his all-round exploits for the Australian cricket team and Melbourne Stars in the Big Bash League, Stoinis will certainly be one of the players to watch out for at the 2020 auction. A perfect middle-order batsman and a useful right-arm medium bowler, Stoinis might be a valuable addition to Kings XI Punjab.
