The teams will look for good spinners as the Indian T20 League will switch back to a home-away format in the 2023 season. The cash-rich league’s upcoming season’s auction is just around the corner, and the teams will be prepared with their plans. In the tournament, spinners have always been crucial. One of the causes of this can be attributed to India’s spin-friendly tracks. In this listicle, we will look at some of the spinners that franchises could target in the Indian T20 League 2023 mini-auction.
#1 Shakib Al Hasan
Shakib Al Hasan, the captain of the Bangladesh Test and T20 teams and a seasoned T20 player, might draw high bids in the Indian T20 League 2023 auction. The gifted all-arounder is a captain-calibre player with a tonne of experience under his belt.
He has participated in 71 games of the tournament so far, but he was unable to play in the 2022 season because he was unsold. He can be targeted by any team because he is a reliable batter and wicket-taking bowler.
#2 Adam Zampa
Adam Zampa, an experienced leg-spinner, can be purchased by any team for a hefty sum if we ignore the fact that he left the Bangalore team midway through the Indian T20 League 2021. He could be on many teams’ radars.
For Australia in 72 T20I games, the leg-spinner has taken 82 wickets at a respectable average of 21.7. Zampa has played for teams in the Indian T20 League like the Bangalore team and the now-defunct Pune team.
#3 Mujeeb Ur Rahman
Mujeeb was a fireball with the ball for the Punjab franchise in his first Indian T20 League season. He stole the show when he claimed 14 wickets in 11 games, and the youngster was hailed as international cricket’s next big thing.
He has since played in 36 T20 Internationals for Afghanistan and has claimed 49 wickets. The 21-year-old has been a great performer for his international side, and the teams will hope that he delivers in the Indian T20 League as well.
