IPL 2024 Auction: 3 Teams Who Can Target Adil Rashid In The Auction
3. Royal Challengers Bangalore
Royal Challengers Bangalore is the first team on this list. RCB has parted ways with a key spinner in the form of Wanindu Hasaranga. They have picked spinner Mayank Dagar through a trade.
However, the three-time runners-up need an experienced spinner in their squad after the ouster of Hasaranga. Hence, they might grab Adil Rashid in the IPL 2024 auction. RCB can grab 6 more players into their squad with an available budget of Rs. 23.25 crore.

2. Mumbai Indians
Mumbai Indians is another team that can target Adil Rashid in their squad. MI has spinner Piyush Chawla with them. The right-arm spinner also showcased a stunning form last season. He finished as the highest wicket-taker for the team with 22 scalps.
However, Chawla does not play for the national side and only plays in IPL. Hence, he is not a regular on the field throughout the year. The Rohit Sharma-led side will need a backup if Chawla struggles with his form in IPL 2024. The five-time champions have Rs. 17.75 crore in salary cap. They can get 8 more players into their side.
1. Punjab Kings
Another team that can look out for Adil Rashid in IPL 2024 auction is Punjab Kings. If we talk about full-time spinners, Rahul Chahar is the only name that pops out in Punjab Kings. The right-arm spinner could only get 8 wickets across 14 games for the side last season.
Hence, he failed to get enough wickets. The IPL 2014 runners-up can go ahead with Adil Rashid in IPL 2024 to have more spinners in their squad. If Chahar fails to deliver once again, they can try Adil Rashid in some games. The Shikhar Dhawan-led side can take 8 more players into their squad with a budget of Rs. 29.10.
