IPL 2024

3 teams who will target Mitchell Starc in IPL 2024 mini-auction

1. Kolkata Knight Riders 

KKR are one of the most favourites to bid for the Aussie pacer as they have released the maximum number of players in the 2024 retention window. They have released 12 players with most of them being fast bowlers, like Tim Southee, Lockie Ferguson, and Umesh Yadav. Among the pacers, they only have Harshit Rana and Vaibhav Arora. They would love to add the Aussie fast bowler in their side to bolster their pace department.

Previously the pacer was picked by the franchise in 2018 but he was ruled out due to injury problems. They need a pacer who can lead from the front as they have had problems with the pace bowling department in the last couple of years. They also have a hefty amount of 32.70 crore INR and would love to go all out to gain the service of the fast bowler.
