Many franchises have wicket-keepers who are in the final years of their careers. Hence, we could see many debutantes in IPL 2024. Here, we take a look at the list of three talented Indian wicket-keepers who could make their debut in IPL 2024.
In T20s, the batting skills are a more dominant requirement when compared to the wicket-keeping skills. It is difficult to ace and hence, there needs to be a lot of scouting to nail the targets.
1) Robin Minz
Known as Jharkhand’s Chris Gayle, Robin Minz is known as the first Adivasi cricketer to feature in the IPL. He was picked up for a price above INR 3 Cr by Gujarat Titans in the recent auctions. Mumbai Indians had scouted him before and also sent him for a few tours. Minz has the same coach as MS Dhoni and that itself is a big attribute. With Saha not a long-term option, Minz could make his debut next season.
2) Shaik Rasheed is one of the wicket-keepers who could debut IPL 2024
Shaik Rasheed is one of the talented Indian wicket-keepers who could make their debut in IPL 2024. It will be interesting to see who will replace MS Dhoni as the CSK wicket-keeper for the future. The franchise has already hired some youngsters who could take over the baton. With Dhoni’s knee issues, it won’t be a surprise if the talented Shaik Rasheed gets to make his debut in the IPL.
3) Kumar Kushagra
If a player has earned a bid of more than INR 7 Cr, it means he is special. Delhi Capitals were desperate for Kumar Kushagra and they signed him in the end. Rishabh Pant may not keep wickets and in this regard, DC might need some good options on the roster. In this context, Kumar Khushagra could make his debut.
