English players have played a crucial role for almost all the franchises in the last few seasons. There are some franchises that particularly show faith in England players. There are some big English names taking part in IPL 2024. Let us take a look at 3 England players to watch out for in IPL 2024.
1. Phil Salt
Phil Salt has been recently signed by Kolkata Knight Riders as the replacement for Jason Roy. This is a value addition for KKR as Salt is also a wicketkeeper. He has never played in the IPL before. Interestingly, none of the franchises bought him in the auction. He has been in some great form in recent times in international cricket.
It would not be an easy task for the Englishman to adjust to Indian conditions and deal with the fan pressure in the biggest franchise league in the world. However, he has the potential to emerge as one of the key names in the KKR batting order.
2. Jos Buttler
Jos Buttler was touted as arguably the best white-ball player until last year but in the last few months, everything has turned upside down. He had a miserable campaign in the ODI World Cup and then had a poor series against West Indies. But he still remains one of the most dangerous batters in the league and Rajasthan Royals will be relying heavily on him to lead the batting order.
3. David Willey
The left-arm fast bowler is one of the very few English bowlers in the IPL this season. Lucknow Super Giants have trusted him for his effective bowling skills. He has been playing in franchise leagues around the world and his performances are commendable but he has not much to show in the Indian Premier League. This season will be a great opportunity for him to set the record straight by helping Lucknow mount a title challenge.
