The Indian fans are gearing up for another riveting season of the Indian Premier League. The biggest franchise league in the world will decide the destiny of a lot of Indian players as the T20 World Cup is scheduled just after this IPL season.
Some of the Indian players who are still not a certainty in the T20 World Cup squad will be desperate to deliver impressive performances in order to confirm their ticket to the Caribbean. Let us take a look at the top 3 Indian players to watch out for in IPL 2024.
1. Ishan Kishan
The most interesting name to watch out for this season will be Ishan Kishan. The wicketkeeper-batter has been out of action for more than a couple of months. He was also dropped from the central contract which makes this season make or break for him.
The wicketkeeper slot in the Indian team is still up for grabs and Ishan has a chance. But to grab that he will have to deliver some match-winning performances for Mumbai Indians.
2. Shreyas Iyer
Another big name who has been in the news for various reasons is Shreyas Iyer. The Kolkata Knight Riders skipper was dropped from the Test team and then from the central contract which cast doubt over his future. However, he is now fully fit and ready to lead KKR in the upcoming IPL season.
Iyer is another probable candidate to make it into the Indian team for the T20 World Cup. Last season he missed out on the action due to an injury and this time around KKR fans will be hoping that their captain compensates for last season’s absence.
3. Hardik Pandya
The man who will attract the most eyeballs this season is Hardik Pandya. The star all-rounder will be returning to action after almost five months. In this period a lot has happened. Now he is the captain of Mumbai Indians and will have to bear the responsibility of leading a champion franchise.
He has replaced the 5-time IPL winning captain Rohit Sharma as the captain of Mumbai and fans will hold Hardik accountable if things go haywire. It will be interesting to see how he handles the fan pressure.
