IPL Auction 2020: 3 Australian players Ricky Pointing could target

#1 Mitchell Starc

Mitchell Starc could be the costliest buy of IPL 2020 Auction.

The player who would be on the radar of all the franchises during the auction is the Australian pacer, Mitchell Starc. The left-handed fast bowler may return to the IPL this year after missing the previous editions because of injury. Starc had earlier played for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the tourney.

Delhi Capitals can form a stellar fast bowling attack by recruiting Starc in the team. The team has only 3 overseas players in their squad and they would not mind breaking the bank to gain the services of the Aussie fast bowler. Besides, he can also make up for Trent Boult’s absence in the side.

The New South Wales fast bowler has played in just 2 seasons IPL. He made his IPL debut in 2014 but his best performance came in the year 2015. Starc bagged 20 wickets in the year 2015 as compared to just 14 wickets in 2014. His bowling average also improved from 28.71 in 2014 to 14.55 in the year 2015. Looking at his current form, Ricky Ponting would be keen to bring the pace bowler in the Delhi-based franchise.
