Due to the additions of two new franchises, a mega auction is set to take place ahead of IPL 2022.

Dinesh Karthik is part of Kolkata Knight Riders. The franchise is likely to release him from the squad. His performance in IPL 2021 was not up to the mark and he has also lost his form in batting. If KKR releases Dinesh Karthik ahead of IPL 2022 auctions, he might not be able to find a buyer in the auction.

3. Robin Uthappa

Robin Uthappa is another player who might go unsold in IPL 2022 mega auction. Robin Uthappa became part of Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2021 and played a few games in the tournament. However, he will not be retained by the franchise for the next edition.

As a result, he will be part of the auction and might go unsold. He is not as a dangerous batsman as he used to be. Moreover, there are many better wicketkeepers than him in the tournament.

Kuldeep Yadav is another player on this list. Kuldeep Yadav was once a prominent spinner in the Indian team. However, in the last two years, he faced a lot of issues in his form and could not execute his magical spin attack.

In IPL 2021, he was part of the Kolkata Knight Riders but did not play a single match for the team. Now with the availability of many excellent spinners in India, Kuldeep Yadav might be overlooked by franchises in IPL 2022 auction.

1. Kedar Jadhav

Kedar Jadhav is another player who might go unsold in IPL 2022 mega auction. He was dropped by CSK ahead of IPL 2021 and Sunrisers Hyderabad picked him for the 2021 season. However, Kedar Jadhav completely failed to perform for the team in the tournament.

He got out for little scores as Sunrisers Hyderabad produced a horrible performance in the tournament. He will be released by Sunrisers Hyderabad next year and due to his poor show in the last 2 seasons, he might go unsold in next year’s mega auction.
