IPL 2025 will be key for a few players. They did not get to play a lot of matches in IPL 2024. However, they could find a team which could provide them with a lot of opportunities. Here, we take a look at the list of three benched foreign cricketers in IPL 2024 who might get record bids at IPL 2025 Auctions.
Note: We have considered players who were benched for a majority of the games in IPL 2024.
1) Glenn Phillips
Glenn Phillips was hardly used by SRH in the recent seasons. With Travis Head, Aiden Markram and Heinrich Klaasen in the setup, it was always going to be tough for the Kiwi.
However, it needs to be noted that he is a quality finisher, a handy spinner and a reliable keeper. This makes him a very good choice for most teams. Squads like RCB and CSK could go really hard for him. Hence, he is on this list.
2) Mitchell Santner
Santner is one of the benched foreign cricketers in IPL 2024 who might get record bids at IPL 2025 Auctions. The combination at CSK just did not allow Santner to play a run of games in IPL 2024. He is now likely to leave the unit.
A quality spinner, a handy batter and an excellent fielder, the Kiwi will surely be in demand in IPL 2025 Auctions. A number of teams which are looking for an experienced spinner will go behind the all-rounder.
3) Marco Jansen
The moment Pat Cummins signed up for SRH, it was sure that Jansen would not be getting a lot of games. Adding to this, Pat Cummins was the skipper of the side.
Nevertheless, Jansen is a young and a fine talent. He is usually brilliant with the new ball. His height and angular deliveries will trouble the batters often. Plus, he also adds value with the bat. Considering his age, he can further develop and hence, teams will line up to buy him.
