IPL Auction 2022: Brad Hogg says “I’d have him in front of Ishan Kishan”

IPL Auction 2022: Brad Hogg feels Mumbai Indians stand to lose a lot. Due to the IPL 2022 mega auction since they will be forced to discharge a few of their big names. MI has had the most settled squad in the IPL. Which explains why they are the most successful franchise in the history of the T20 league. However, teams have only been allowed to retain a maximum of four players. Also, Mumbai will have to let go of a number of its star performers. Mumbai will face a difficult struggle, it is acknowledged. They have the option of keeping four players. Also mentioned by Hogg are Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, and Trent Boult.

“Mumbai Indians, they are going to lose some big players and they are going to be put on the back foot at the end of this auction. For me, you keep Rohit Sharma as your captain and Suryakumar Yadav – a batter who can play 360 degrees and turn the game on its head. I’d have him in front of Ishan Kishan and I’d keep Bumrah. For my overseas player, I’d keep Trent Boult. He picks up wickets in the powerplay, is improving in the death. I think that’s a huge investment,” Brad Hogg said.

Mumbai Indians

IPL Auction 2022: Lastly, In 2019 and 2020, the Mumbai Indians won back-to-back IPL titles. And they didn’t make the playoffs this season. They ended fifth in the standings with seven victories and the same number of losses. In the IPL 2021, both Mumbai and Kolkata Knight Riders finished with 14 points. Kolkata was also able to make the playoffs because of its superior run rate. However, they turned their fortunes around in the UAE leg.

“Venkatesh Iyer has just come on stage and has really excelled in a short period of time. Do you make a huge investment in him going forward? I would. I will also keep Gill and Chakravarthy. If I am looking at keeping overseas players, I’d like to keep both Andre Russell and Sunil Narine. I’ll keep Narine with the mystery spin and, hopefully, I can pick up Russell at the auction. He’s injury-prone and not as reliable to start on the park as Narine,” Hogg stated.
