IPL 2022 Auction: 3 Teams Which Can Target Sam Curran

Since two more teams are going to be part of IPL 2022, a mega auction will take place ahead of the next year’s season. Sam Curran, who is currently part of Chennai Super Kings, might have to leave the squad. Some reports suggest that Moeen Ali is CSK’s first choice of retention for an overseas player, other than three confirmed domestic players MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, and Ruturaj Gaikwad.

Sam Curran did not play for CSK in IPL 2021 UAE leg but the England all-rounder executed an impressive performance in the first leg and also in last year’s season. He is a powerful all-rounder who can pick wickets as well as smash big shots while batting. If CSK releases the England youngster from the squad ahead of IPL 2022 auction, other franchises will aim to pick him. Here we talk about 3 teams that can target Sam Curran in IPL 2022 auction.

IPL 2022 Auction: 3 Teams Which Can Target Sam Curran

3. Royal Challengers Bangalore

Royal Challengers Bangalore is the first team on this list. With the retirement of AB de Villiers from all forms of cricket, RCB will be short of an exceptional overseas player in the squad in the next season. Moreover, the team does have powerful batters and bowlers in the squad but not a dominating all-rounder. Sam Curran can fill that spot in the RCB squad.

2. Rajasthan Royals

Rajasthan Royals is another team that might be interested to pick Sam Curran in IPL 2022 auction. Rajasthan Royals have always opted to pick young players in the squad. Players like skipper Sanju Samson, Shreyas Gopal, Rahul Tewatia, Shivam Dube are examples of the same.

Similarly, 23-year-old Sam Curran is another young all-rounder who might attack Rajasthan Royals. Moreover, after all-rounder Chris Morris’ poor show in IPL 2021 UAE leg, the franchise might drop him from the squad and then need a strong overseas all-rounder to replace him.

1. Punjab Kings

Punjab Kings is the 3rd franchise that might pick Sam Curran in IPL 2022 auction. Led by KL Rahul, the franchise showcased poor performance in IPL 2021, finishing on the 7th spot in the points table. Reports are also rife that KL Rahul is all set to part ways with Punjab Kings and join the new Lucknow franchise.

Overseas pacers like Jhye Richardson and Riley Meredith, whom Punjab Kings bought at a huge price, did not come up with an impressive show and also opted out of the UAE leg. Hence, the franchise is highly expected to drop these players ahead of IPL 2022 auction. Thereafter, Sam Curran will be a good option as an overseas all-rounder for Punjab Kings.
