Martin Guptill

Sunrisers Hyderabad released Martin Guptill as they already have David Warner and Jonny Bairstow in the ranks. But teams like Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore can try to rope in Martin Guptill as they need a designated opener in their side.
Guptill has been in decent form in the recent past and he has the skills to get off the blocks from the get-go. The right-hander can provide a good start to his team and can score quickly. The Kiwis opener had scored 153 runs in the five T20I matches against England at an average of 30.60 and with a staggering strike rate of 177.91.
The 33-year old has played only 13 IPL matches but he is currently the third-highest run-getter in the T20I format with 2436 runs in the 83 matches. Furthermore, Guptill is one of the best fielders in the world and he can save extra runs in the field.
