Ravichandran Ashwin is among the few big names that Delhi Capitals will have to release ahead of the upcoming IPL mega auction 2022 and there could be teams eyeing out for him. Ashwin has been one of the silent performers in the last two IPL seasons despite not being among the wickets column and has proved to be very effective.

The off-spinner did a fantastic job in the recent T20 World cup for India and his economy rate has been significant in his success. The 35-year-old is unlikely to be retained by the Delhi franchise considering the huge names they have got in their lineup already and here are 3 teams that can rope in Ravichandran Ashwin ahead of the IPL 2022 Mega auction.

Mumbai Indians are likely to retain Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah along with two more names that will have to be decided. They will not have the choice of retaining Rahul Chahar who has been their lead spinner for a long time now. They will have to pick up a new spinner in the mega auction 2022.

Ravichandran Ashwin could be the best fit for Mumbai Indians as he has done really well under Rohit Sharma for India in the recent series against New Zealand. Rohit is a mastermind when it comes to the captaincy in IPL and he will definitely have an experienced spinner in the side who can take the new ball as well.

Sunrisers Hyderabad:

Sunrisers Hyderabad has lacked a lot of Indian contingents and they will definitely need an Indian spinner who can add a lot of value to the side. Rashid Khan will certainly be their first choice retention and he has been carrying a lot of weight on his shoulders single-handedly.

Sunrisers Hyderabad has an excellent captain in Kane Williamson and he will definitely use Ashwin to his fullest potential. Ashwin can reduce the pressure from one side on Rashid Khan and it gives a massive opportunity for the franchise to keep attacking.

Rajasthan Royals has had a lot of troubles with the captaincy as well as their inexperienced Indian contingent. They will have to rope in experience and Ashwin will be a great option for them. They have a lot of leg spinners in Rahul Tewatia, Mayank Markande, and Shreyas Gopal all of whom have been below par so far.

Rajasthan Royals will know the value of an experienced spinner in their lineup and Ravichandran Ashwin will be a great fit into their lineup in terms of supporting Samson as the captain as well. Royals could be eyeing to bag the off-spinner in the mega auction for IPL 2022.
