IPL Auction 2020: 5 prominent players who could go unsold

#4 Yusuf Pathan - ₹1 crore

Yusuf Pathan

Yusuf Pathan is an IPL legend in his own right. He was instrumental in RR's title-winning campaign in 2008, and became a highly sought-after player afterward.

However, Pathan's time in the limelight seems to be over. The 37-year old all-rounder has listed himself a base price of ₹1 crore, but not many teams are likely to go for him.

In the three seasons he played for SRH, Pathan couldn't cement his place in the side and struggled to make an impact. He could score just 40 runs in 10 games in the 2019 season at a poor strike-rate of 88.88, and was duly released by SRH.

Given his age and dwindling form, not many would want to go for Pathan at the auction. While he has performed decently for Baroda in the various domestic tournaments, his form isn't likely to last; given his heavy price tag, he's likely to go unsold.

#3 Colin Ingram - ₹50 lakh

Proteas batsman Colin Ingram made headlines when he bagged a ₹6.4 crore deal at last season's auction from the Delhi Capitals. But he didn't have a good season, failing to register a single 50+ score. He could put up just 184 runs in 12 matches at a poor average of 17.08.

Ingram's performances in the tournaments which followed the IPL weren't great. He had a poor T10 League and didn't do too well in CPL 2019 either. Moreover, his performances on spin-friendly surfaces haven't been good all through his career; that was one of the main reasons why he struggled in IPL 2019.

There are many better options available in the auction than Ingram. And with overseas slots being limited, he is likely to go unsold despite being available at a bargain price.
