IPL 2022 Points Table: Indian Premier League Standing, Updated Points, Win, Loss and Net Run Rates

ipl-2022-point-table

<p><strong>Expected Captains of 10 IPL teams:</strong> Season fifteen of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has started to ring bells as the process of player retentions for the IPL 2022 has just been completed. All the eight existing IPL teams picked their top players who will remain with the side for a few more years and released the rest of the squad. The IPL 2022 Mega Auction is just a few months from now and the franchises have already begun preparations for that.</p>



<p>The two new teams have been added to the existing pool of eight franchises and the mega auction IPL 2022 is now inevitable. There will be a lot of shuffling of the players and some emotional moments as well for the players who have been associated with certain franchises for a long time in the past and are now released into the auction.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, the IPL 2022 Mega Auction will also force the franchises to change their underperforming captains while a few have already stepped down from their roles. Several franchises have already released their captains while a few captains have themselves relinquished their roles. This article will discuss the Expected Captains of all the 10 IPL teams in the IPL 2022.</p>



<h2 id="expected-captains-of-all-10-ipl-teams-in-ipl-2022"><strong>Expected Captains of all 10 IPL teams in IPL 2022:</strong></h2>



<h3 id="mumbai-indians-mi-rohit-sharma"><strong>Mumbai Indians (MI) - Rohit Sharma</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/04/Rohit-Sharma-IPL.jpg" alt="Vivo IPL 2021 PBKS vs MI: ?Something is missing? says Rohit Sharma after nine-wicket loss against PBKS" class="wp-image-60039" /></figure>



<p>The most successful IPL captain, Rohit Sharma has been retained by his parent franchise and will hold his leadership roles for the coming season as well. Under Rohit, Mumbai Indians won five IPL titles in eight years and did exceedingly well.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Rohit Sharma?s captaincy record is second to none in the IPL and he has started posing himself as a strong white ball candidate for India?s captaincy after Virat Kohli.</p>



<p>After taking the leadership role from Ricky Ponting in 2013, Mumbai Indians were a little worried about the role and had to give it to Rohit Sharma as he was the only performing player in the team. That move to appoint Rohit, the leader of the side, paid dividends to the franchise.</p>



<h3 id="chennai-super-kings-csk-ms-dhoni">Chennai Super Kings (CSK) - <s>MS Dhoni</s> <strong>Ravindra Jadeja</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/01/Ravindra-Jadeja-and-MS-Dhoni-1.jpg" alt="Tata IPL 2022: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) New Captain in IPL 2022" class="wp-image-82773" /><figcaption>Image: BCCI/IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>MS Dhoni step down from the CSK Caption role.

<p class="has-white-color has-vivid-purple-background-color has-text-color has-background">Ravindra Jadeja is the new Caption of Chennai super Kings</p>



<p>The four-times IPL winning IPL franchise, Chennai Super Kings has retained the likes of Mahendra Singh Dhoni for the coming season of the IPL for a whopping INR 12 Crores and is expected to lead his team once again.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/10/MS-Dhoni-CSK-1.jpg" alt="IPL 2022: CSK to use its first retention card on MS Dhoni in IPL 2022: Officials" class="wp-image-77702" /><figcaption>Image: IPL/BCCI</figcaption></figure>



<p>Dhoni had already indicated his plans for the coming season where he said that he wants to play his last match at Chennai?s Chepauk.</p>



<p>Some of the experts believe that MS Dhoni is going to play the entire IPL 2022 season. He will lead the side once again after winning the IPL 2021 in Dubai.</p>



<h3 id="delhi-capitals-dc-rishabh-pant"><strong>Delhi Capitals (DC) - Rishabh Pant</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/04/rishabh-Pant-IPL-1.jpg" alt="Vivo IPL 2021: Rishabh Pant to continue leading Delhi Capitals, Iyer to play under him" class="wp-image-50134" /><figcaption>Rishabh Pant | Image-IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>The young stumper batsman Rishabh Pant has been named as the leader of Delhi Capitals (DC) once again after his success in the last season. He replaced Shreyas Iyer in the team, who is apparently not retained by the franchise.</p>



<p>Pant was appointed leader of the side when Iyer was injured and he did enormously well in the Captaincy. He took his team to the playoffs and was apt with his resource usage.</p>



<p>The franchise has shown faith in the skills of the young Indian southpaw and is handed the reins of the side once again for the IPL 2022.</p>



<p><em>Expected Captains of all 10 IPL teams in IPL 2022.</em></p>



<h3 id="sunrisers-hyderabad-srh-kane-williamson"><strong>Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) - Kane Williamson</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/05/Kane-Williamson-1.jpg" alt="Vivo IPL 2021: Kane Williamson and 3 other Kiwi players flew to Maldives after not feeling safe in Delhi" class="wp-image-63351" /></figure>



<p>The New Zealand captain Kane Williamson is going to be SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) skipper for the fifteenth season of the Indian Premier League. He has been retained by the franchise for a whopping INR 14 Crores during the recent IPL 2022 Player Retentions.</p>



<p>The franchise earlier sacked David Warner from his captaincy and appointed Kane Williamson as the leader of the group. Warner was not given enough reasons for his removal and thus the franchise was amidst the public rage over their behaviour toward David Warner.</p>



<p>Williamson recently took his national side to ICC T20 World Cup 2021 final despite not having mighty players in the squad unlike India, Australia and England. New Zealand took everyone for a surprise after they reached the final and asserted that a team needs to play like a team in order to proceed forward in any tournament.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The inaugural champions of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Rajasthan Royals are keen to give another go to young Sanju Samson as the leader of the side. He has been retained by the franchise for whopping INR 14 Crores.</p>



<p>Samson was appointed Rajasthan?s captain during IPL 2021 following Steve Smith?s failure. Though it was not a memorable campaign for the Sanju-led Rajasthan Royals, surely he will have his learning.</p>



<p>He will be eager to apply his learnings in the coming season and fetch results for his team. It will be interesting to see Samson kind of leadership in the coming season.</p>



<h3 id="punjab-kings-pbks-mayank-agarwal"><strong>Punjab Kings (PBKS) - Mayank Agarwal</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/12/Mayank-Agarwal.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-81372" /><figcaption>Mayank Agarwal | Image- IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>The Mohali based IPL franchise is struggling to get going in the Indian Premier League. Right from the player selection to their strategies, the franchise has grappled a lot and is keen to make amends to it from the coming season.</p>



<p>Mayank Agarwal is the probable candidate to lead the side in the coming auction. KL Rahul has already parted ways with the franchise and wants to explore opportunities.</p>



<p>Agarwal has been retained by the franchise for INR 12 Crores. He will serve the franchise for a few more years to come and is a good candidate for the captaincy role.</p>



<h3 id="kolkata-knight-riders-kkr-shreyas-iyer"><strong>Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) -  </strong>Shreyas Iyer</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2018/04/Shreyas-Iyer.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-68956" /><figcaption>Shreyas Iyer Caption of KKR (Image Credit - Twitter)</figcaption></figure>



<p class="has-white-color has-vivid-purple-background-color has-text-color has-background">Shreyas Santosh Iyer is an Indian cricket player who plays for the national team in international cricket, Mumbai in home cricket, and the Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League.</p>



<p>The two times IPL winner, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) doesn?t have a captaincy material cricketer right now. The franchise has retained the likes of Andre Russell, Varun Chakravarthy, Venkatesh Iyer and Sunil Narine during the recent player retention and none of them seems to be the right player to be given the highest order roles and responsibilities.</p>



<h3 id="royal-challengers-bangalore-rcb-glenn-maxwell"><strong>Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) - Faf Du Plessis</strong></h3>

<p id="royal-challengers-bangalore-rcb-glenn-maxwell">The biggest question for RCB going forward in the coming season of the IPL will be, Who will be their next captain after Virat Kohli?</p>



<p>Kohli, recently decided to step down from T20 captaincy to manage his excessive workload and since then the debate around RCB?s next skipper started. The franchise definitely wants someone who can take forward Virat Kohli?s legacy and his efforts. It will be interesting to see, who steps into Virat?s shoe in the coming season.</p>



<p>RCB finally confirmed that <strong>Faf Du Plessis</strong> going to lead Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in IPL 2022.</p>

<p>Based on the Ahmedabad players choice it is clear cut that Hardik Pandya is going to lead the Ahmedabad team in IPL 2022.</p>



<h3 id="lucknow-based-ipl-franchise-kl-rahul"><strong>Lucknow based IPL franchise - KL Rahul</strong></h3>

<p><em>Tata IPL 2022: Vivo pulled out of IPL title sponsorship, Tata Group set to replace in IPL 2022.</em></p>



<p><strong>Tata IPL 2022:</strong> Chinese smartphone manufacturer company, Vivo, has finally decided to pull out of the Indian Premier League?s title sponsorship. The decision was made public during the Indian Premier League (IPL) Governing Council (GC) meeting held on January 11th.</p>



<p>Vivo acquired the title sponsorship rights of the lucrative IPL back in 2018 for a massive INR 440 Crores. The five years massive agreement with the BCCI was set to run until the end of IPL 2022.?</p>



<p>The border standoff between India and China, last year and the political tension between the two countries pushed Vivo into the back foot and forced to withdraw from its IPL sponsorship deal.?</p>



<p>The rights of the IPL 2020 were transferred to Dream11 owing to the rising political tension between India and China, however, Vivo was brought back as the title sponsor in the recently concluded IPL 2021.</p>



<p>Since the Galwan Valley clash, anti-china sentiments begin to flow in India which to a large extent disrupted the business model of various Chinese Brands.?</p>



<p><strong><span class="has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color">ALSO READ: </span></strong><a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/new-captain-of-ahmedabad-based-ipl-team-in-ipl-2022/"><strong>New Captain of Ahmedabad Based IPL Team in IPL 2022</strong></a></p>



<p>It has been reported that Vivo had earlier made an official request to the BCCI to terminate the five years deal with one year remaining. The decision was approved by the board officials on January 11th in IPL?s GC meet.</p>



<p>"There was a request from Vivo to exit the IPL sponsorship deal and the GC has approved it,? said a BCCI official who was the part of the IPL Governing Council meeting on January 11th.</p>

<p>In another important development, Tata?s will now be the title sponsor of the IPL 2022. The official rights have been transferred to one of India?s biggest corporate giants. The Tata group will remain as the title sponsor until the end of the IPL 2023.</p>



<p>"Vivo has exited and the Tatas will be title sponsors," chairman of the league Brijesh Patel confirmed.</p>



<p>The BCCI would continue to earn the same amount that it used to receive from the Chinese smartphone manufacturer Vivo. The biggest T20 tournament of the world will now be called the ?Tata IPL.?</p>

<p><strong>Tata IPL 2022 Mega Auction Date Confirmed:</strong> As said earlier, the ongoing week is going to be a huge week regarding the developments of the upcoming IPL 2022. Earlier, the BCCI on January 10th confirmed Ahmedabad's inclusion in the Indian Premier League (IPL) family following weeks of tussle due to the concerns of CVC Capitals betting investments.</p>



<p>Now, in an exclusive development, IPL chairman Brijesh Patel confirmed the dates of the all-important IPL 2022 Mega Auction. Mr Patel on January 11th verified that the IPL 2022 Mega Auction will be a two days affair between the 10 IPL teams.</p>



<p>The Tata IPL 2022 Mega Auction is scheduled in the city of Bangalore on 12th and 13th February, Mr Brijesh Patel confirmed.</p>



<p>He also said that the BCCI has provided two weeks time to the two new teams to select and announce their top three draft picks. A formal letter regarding the same is yet to be dispatched, however, BCCI verbally informed the owners of Ahmedabad and Lucknow.</p>



<p>The two new IPL teams, Lucknow and Ahmedabad, will have to finalise their draft picks on or before January 25th.</p>

<h2><strong>Vivo's exit from IPL's title sponsorship:</strong></h2>



<p>The IPL chairman also confirmed the exit of the Chinese Smartphone manufacturer brand, Vivo, from the title sponsorship of the IPL. It was revealed that Vivo had made a request to terminate the deal before the IPL 2022 and BCCI accepted the request.</p>



<p>The Tata Group was inducted into the IPL as its new title sponsor until IPL 2023. The BCCI would earn the same amount that it used to earn from Vivo.</p>



<p>?Vivo has exited and the Tatas will be title sponsors. There was a request from Vivo to exit the IPL sponsorship deal and the GC has approved it. The BCCI will continue to earn the same fee for the title rights,? said Brijesh Patel as quoted by Cricbuzz.</p>



<p>Vivo?s exit from the IPL was anticipated due to the political tensions between India and China. Vivo backed out as IPL?s title sponsor in IPL 2020 and subsequently, Dream11 was roped in by the BCCI for that particular season. Vivo came back as the title sponsor in the recently held IPL 2021 but is no longer in the position to continue the agreement which was scheduled to run until the end of IPL 2023.</p>



<p>The lucrative T20 league, the Indian Premier League (IPL), will now be called the Tata IPL.</p>

<p><strong>Mitchell Starc to make IPL return after a long break of seven years:</strong> Australian all-format pacer Mitchell Starc is completing his return to the cash-rich Indian Premier League (IPL) following years of reluctance to feature in the lucrative tournament. Starc has now a responsibility to create a balance between his international career and the IPL.</p>



<p>In his recent conversation, Starc informed that he is considering filling the form for the IPL 2022 Mega auction, scheduled to be held on 12th and 13th February in Bangalore.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The ace speedster said that IPL is certainly on cards and he wants to feature in the best T20 tournament.</p>



<p>?It`s [IPL] certainly on the table regardless of what the schedule has got coming up.?</p>



<p>"I`ve got two days to get my paperwork in, so that might be something to do today before training. I`ve not put my name down just yet, but I`ve got a couple more days to decide on that,? cricket.com.au quoted Starc as saying.</p>



<p>Mitchell Starc has featured in just two IPL seasons despite being the best in the business over the last few years. He donned Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) jersey during IPL 2014 and 2015.</p>



<p>For RCB, Starc scalped 34 wickets in 27 matches at a good economy of 7.16 and strike rate of 17. The all format pacer has opted to take the IPL window as his rest time to just go off from the field of cricket and spend time with his family.</p>



<p>The decision seems more sensible since Starc?s wife, Alyssa Healy, is also a professional cricketer and remains away from her family for a large portion of the year. The IPL window seems to be the perfect time for the couple to spend time together.</p>

<p>"I haven`t been for six years or so. Obviously, with a heavy weighting towards T20s over the last period of time and the World Cup coming up later this year, that`s one to take into consideration as well. There`s a bit going on with scheduling and what-not to get our heads around, certainly for us multi-format players," he added.</p>



<p>Australia is scheduled with a packed cricket in the year 2022. The Aussies have been fixed to play a home series against New Zealand following the ongoing Ashes 2021-22. They will then play against Sri Lanka in February. Following the series against Sri Lanka, Australia is then scheduled to visit Pakistan for an all-format series.</p>



<p>Right after Australia?s Pakistan tour, the IPL 2022 will begin and it will be extended until June due to the expansion of the tournament. Each franchise will be scheduled to play 18 league stage games followed by the playoffs.</p>



<p>So, there is a lot of cricket planned from Australia?s perspective. Starc will be active in all these aforementioned tours and series. He is the key pacer for Australia and will have to manage his workload efficiently if he opts to feature in the IPL 2022.</p>

IPL 2022: Mitchell Starc to make IPL return after a long break of seven years

<p><strong>Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) New Captain in IPL 2022:</strong> With the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 Mega Auction date coming closer, the hype around the lucrative league just grows bigger and bigger. The fifteenth edition of the IPL is going to be huge and we can clearly see the developments around it.</p>



<p>The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have always been a side built around the stars of the cricketing world. The likes of Sourav Ganguly, Brendon McCullum, Shoaib Akhtar and Ricky Pointing have only increased the popularity of the team.</p>



<p>Despite being a star-studded side, KKR hasn?t found it easy to storm into the top four of the IPL on many occasions. The franchise saw its star aligning themselves in the perfect path as the captaincy of the team was handed over to southpaw Gautam Gambhir back in 2011.</p>



<p>Gambhir took KKR to two IPL titles in the year 2012 and 2014, however, since then it has been a draught run for the two tiles IPL winners. The franchise though did a lot of back-end work to turn the fortunes, but nothing seemed to work out.</p>



<p>The recent IPL 2021 wasn?t fruitful either until KKR corrected its mistakes in the second phase of the league. The first seven matches were hard to dissolve for the Knight Riders, however, the forced covid break turned out to be a blessing in disguise for them. KKR rose from the penultimate position and went on to play the finals of the league against CSK.</p>



<p>The franchise had a perfect captain in Eoin Morgan in the IPL 2021, but somehow Morgan?s sharp blade didn?t respond well in the entire IPL. Eoin Morgan could only manage to score 133 in 17 matches at a poor average of 11.08.</p>



<p>Knight Riders management won?t be happy with the stat possessed by the English player and will be keen on doing some shuffling in the captaincy of the team. Here in this article, we will take a look at top players who can be Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) new captain in the IPL 2022.</p>



<h2><strong>Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) New Captain in IPL 2022:</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Shreyas Iyer:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/01/Shreyas-Iyer-DC-1.jpg" alt="IPL 2022: Captain of Lucknow IPL Team in the IPL 2022" class="wp-image-82608" /><figcaption>Image: BCCI/IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>Delhi Capitals (DC), in the recent player retentions, opted against the retention of Shreyas Iyer and marked him a free agent for the IPL 2022 Mega Auction. Rishabh Pant has been retained as the skipper of Capitals for the next IPL season.</p>



<p>Shreyas Iyer, being a free agent, is being chased down by multiple IPL franchises, one of those is Kolkata Knight Riders. The King Khan co-owned IPL franchise is impressed with what Iyer bring with him and wants him to be the KKR skipper in IPL 2022.</p>



<p>A report published in the TOI indicated that Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) is interested in the services of Shreyas Iyer as the potential captain of the side.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Iyer?s successful captaincy stint at Delhi Capitals (DC) has piqued KKR?s interest in the cricketer. Under his leadership, DC finished as the runner-up of IPL 2020 and has been consistently doing well to at least reach playoffs.</p>

<h3><strong>Ben Stokes:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/12/Ben-Stokes.jpg" alt="IPL 2022 Mega Auction: IPL franchises that can target Ben Stokes in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction or before" class="wp-image-81415" /><figcaption>Image: IPL/Twitter</figcaption></figure>



<p>Rajasthan Royals (RR) has released their premier all-rounder Ben Stokes during the recent player retentions. This wasn?t anticipated as Stokes is one of the most favourable T20 batsmen at present.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Now Stokes being a free agent can be acquired by any IPL franchise during the IPL 2022 Mega Auction. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) should highly invest in the all-rounder services in the upcoming mega auction.</p>



<p>Ben Stokes has proved himself as a mature player owing to which he has posed himself as the strong captaincy material candidate for England. Several cricket pundits have talked in favour of Ben Stokes and hailed his on-field brilliance for England.</p>



<p>He captained a depleted England side in the ODI series against Pakistan, last year. In the three matches ODI series, Ben Stokes led England cleanly swept Pakistan convincingly.</p>



<p>There has been a lot to talk about the English all-rounder. He is a phenomenal cricketer with both bat and ball in hand. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) should consider him as a potential candidate to lead the side if they fail to get Shreyas Iyer on the team.</p>



<h3><strong>Aaron Finch:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/02/Aaron-Finch-1.jpg" alt="Aaron Finch playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore" class="wp-image-33598" /></figure>



<p>The other probable candidate to target in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction will be Australian limited-overs skipper Aaron Finch.?</p>



<p>Though Finch went unsold during the IPL 2021 mini auctions, his captaincy brilliance is no secret the to entire world. Finch is a highly rated T20 batsman in the world. He is the sixth-ranked T20I batsman in the world with 709 rating points.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Moreover, Finch-led Australia recently won the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 which speaks volumes of his skilful captaincy.?</p>



<p>Aaron Finch is someone who can play a strikers role in the powerplay overs and can score the bulk of runs for the team in initial overs, however, he isn?t someone who can be relied upon with the willow in hand.</p>



<p>In the Indian Premier League (IPL) season thirteen, Finch scored 268 runs in 12 innings for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. The right-handed batsman averaged 22.33.</p>



<p>With the recent T20 World Cup title win, Aaron Finch automatically becomes a strong captaincy candidate and KKR should definitely think about having him on board for the fifteenth edition of the Indian Premier League.</p>

IPL 2022: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) New Captain in IPL 2022

<p><strong>England test skipper Joe Root contemplating entering IPL 2022 Mega Auction: </strong>England red ball skipper Joe Root on Thursday expressed his intentions to feature in the lucrative Indian Premier League (IPL) season fifteen. Four years after going unsold, Root is again pondering putting his name in the auction and going under the hammer.</p>



<p>In his recent conversation with ESPNcricinfo, Root indicated his arrival in the IPL, if the tournament doesn?t distract him from the test cricket.</p>



<p>It is noteworthy that Joe Root, who is considered as one of the modern-day greats, is yet to don the IPL jersey. He opted to feature in the cash-rich league back in IPL 2018, however, not even a single franchise showed interest in his services.</p>



<p>"Time is ticking but I have a lot to weigh up. Will it have a negative impact on me playing Test cricket? If I don't think so then I will put myself in the auction. But I will never do anything that will detract from playing Test cricket for England. It's so important to make sure that is the priority for me and other players as well,? said Joe Root, according to ESPNcricinfo.</p>



<p>Notably, Root has expressed his desire to play in the competitive IPL a couple of times earlier as well, however, in the end, he has always opted against entering the IPL auction as somehow the IPL hampered his test cricket aspirations, which is his utmost priority.</p>



<p>Joe Root is also targeting the Tata IPL 2022 as it will further encourage his chances of getting a slot in England's T20I side for the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. The Englishmen last featured in a T20I fixture back in 2019 against Pakistan. </p>

<p>The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has scheduled the Tata IPL 2022 Mega Auction in Bangalore as a two-day event. The auction will be held on 12th and 13th February.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, Australian ace pacer Mitchell Starc is also contemplating entering the IPL 2022 Mega Auction after seven long years of break. Starc last featured in the IPL 2015 for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).?</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/01/Mitchell-Starc-RCB-1.jpg" alt="IPL 2022: Mitchell Starc to make IPL return after a long break of seven years" class="wp-image-82737" /><figcaption>Image: BCCI/IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>Though Starc mentioned that he hasn?t filled up the auction form, but is likely to do it. Mitchell Starc has always looked at the IPL window as his break time to manage his workload and spend time with his family.</p>



<p>In the IPL 2018, Starc bagged a hefty contract of INR 9.4 Crores from two times IPL champions, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), however, the pacer was later ruled out of the tournament due to an injury.</p>



<p>It remains to be seen if both Joe Root and Mitchell Starc opts to enter the IPL auction or not.</p>

Tata IPL 2022: England skipper Joe Root contemplating entering IPL 2022 Mega Auction

<p><strong>BCCI to shift Tata IPL 2022 to South Africa or Sri Lanka amid surge in covid cases:</strong> The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) once again find itself in the middle of the stranded sea as the surge in COVID19 cases in India has compelled the cricket board to think of other possible options to host the elite tournament. The Indian cricket board currently has little to no clarity on the IPL amid the surge in the covid cases in the country.</p>



<p>As per the reports of the Indian Express, the BCCI is now keeping South Africa and Sri Lanka on the standby list to host the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) if India fails to heal from the awkward covid situation quickly.</p>



<p>Hosting the cash-rich league in India is BCCI?s first priority with all ten teams playing in home-away format. Separate 10 venues will be used for the tournament and each team is likely to be scheduled to play as many as 18 matches in the IPL 2022.?</p>



<p>The COVID?s third wave is still in its nascent stage in India currently and possibilities of hosting the IPL in India are endless despite rise in the cases. Recently, the BCCI was also contemplating hosting the entire IPL 2022 in Maharashtra, however, the plans seem to fade away as Maharashtra is reporting massive covid spikes on daily basis.</p>



<p>The Indian cricket board is also not willing to always look to the UAE for hosting the IPL. The last two seasons of the tournament were hosted in UAE only.</p>



<p><strong><span class="has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color">ALSO READ: </span></strong><a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/kolkata-knight-riders-kkr-new-captain-in-ipl-2022/"><strong>IPL 2022: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) New Captain in IPL 2022</strong></a></p>



<p>?We can?t be dependent on UAE all the time so we decided to explore more options, South Africa?s time difference also works out well for the players,? said a BCCI official.</p>



<p>Team India is currently on the tour of South Africa. Following the ongoing third test match, India and South Africa will lock horns in the three matches ODI series, starting January 19th. If the India tour of South Africa concludes successfully without any hindrance of covid-19, the Indian cricket board would feel encouraged to consider hosting the IPl 2022 in South Africa.</p>



<p>?The place where the team was staying for the second Test is spread over several acres. There were walking tracks and even a pond on the property and that has made things easier for the players who for the last couple of years or so have been confined to their rooms on several overseas tours,? said an official.</p>



<p>Moreover, the chaos caused by Omicron seems to have settled down and the South African government have begun lifting the restrictions in the country. With all encouraging signs coming, South Africa pose itself as a strong contender to host the IPL 2022, if India fails to recover on time.</p>

<p><strong>Bharat Arun has joined Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) as bowling coach for IPL 2022:</strong> Former Indian bowling coach Bharat Arun has joined the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for the upcoming edition of the Indian tournament. The franchise confirmed the development through a social media post on Friday (January 14th).</p>



<p>It must be noted that Arun?s tenure as team India?s bowling coach ended recently after the conclusion of the ICC T20 World Cup 2021. The former right-arm pacer was in Ravi Shastri?s coaching panel in the Indian team and served for several years. </p>



<p>Indian bowlers achieved scalable heights under the shadow of Arun. Team India?s daunting pace attack is formed under Bharat Arun?s coaching stint.</p>



<p>It is noteworthy that Bharat Arun was previously associated with Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) from 2015 to 2017. However, the coach had to resign from his role due to the conflict of interest issue.</p>



<p>?I?m very excited and looking forward to becoming part of a highly successful franchise, such as the Knight Riders. I have admired the Knight Riders franchise for not only being very successful in the IPL &amp; around the world in T20 leagues but also for the way it is very professionally run,? said Arun in a statement shared by KKR.</p>



<p>Bharat Arun, who himself have represented India at the highest levels, knows the challenges faced by the bowlers. He successfully dealt with the obstacles and took the bowling unit to new heights.</p>

<p>KKR CEO Venky Mysore also expressed his excitement after the appointment of Bharat Arun as KKR?s new bowling coach.</p>



<p>?We are very excited to have someone of the calibre of Bharat Arun joining us as our bowling coach. He will bring a wealth of experience and expertise to KKR?s strong support staff. We are delighted to welcome him to the Knight Riders family,? said Venky Mysore.</p>



<p>KKR?s head coach Brendon McCullum reckons Arun?s experience as valuable and will help the franchise break the shackles in the future.</p>



<p>?With a strong and successful pedigree in the international game, I?m sure Arun will complement the current staff we have and I look forward to working with him. His experience at international level and the ability to give confidence and clarity to our bowling group will be important, as we attempt to quickly align a new group of players to the values and style of play for KKR,? said the former New Zealand skipper.</p>

<p><strong>Punjab Kings (PBKS) new Captain in Tata IPL 2022:</strong> The Punjab Kings (PBKS) has been the most unfortunate franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL). In fact, PBKS is one of the three IPL teams that has featured in every IPL season since the inception of the tournament and never won a title.</p>



<p>The franchise, which was earlier known as ?Kings XI Punjab?, choose to rebrand the team ahead of the IPL 2021. Punjab Kings (PBKS) name was adopted in the IPL 2021, however, that also couldn?t bring change in the fortunes as the team again failed to reach playoffs.</p>



<p>Punjab Kings (PBKS) sustained a massive blow as their premier batsman and captain KL Rahul decided to part ways with the franchise and try out other opportunities. During the retention process, Rahul was dropped from PBKS, though the franchise wanted to have his services.</p>



<p>In the Tata IPL 2022 Player Retentions, Punjab retained the likes of Mayank Agarwal and Arshdeep Singh. With just two retentions, PBKS will be highly active in the upcoming IPL 2022 Mega Auction and will try to acquire big-time match-winners in the team.</p>



<p>Ahead of the fifteenth edition of the IPL, PBKS have already lost their skipper and in this article, we will take a look at some of the possible options to be Punjab Kings (PBKS) new Captain in the Tata IPL 2022.</p>



<h2><strong>Punjab Kings (PBKS) new Captain in Tata IPL 2022:</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Mayank Agarwal:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/12/Mayank-Agarwal.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-81372" /><figcaption>Image Source: BCCI/IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>Talented opener batsman Mayank Agarwal will be one of the probable candidates for Punjab Kings (PBKS) to lead the team. Probably, Agarwal would be one of the easiest options as the franchise has already retained his services during the recent player retention for INR 12 Crores.</p>



<p>Besides KL Rahul, Mayank Agarwal is the only player who has consistently performed for the team. Often Agarwal used to be the initiator of the destruction and scored the bulk of runs for PBKS in the powerplay overs.</p>



<p>In KL Rahul?s absence, Mayank Agarwal has also led the franchise in the past. Moreover, he is a quick learner of the game who can be utilised as the captain in future.</p>



<p>PBKS appointed him deputy of KL Rahul and by general judgement, he should be the one to captain the team after Rahul?s exit. Mayank Agarwal also has a productive synergy with the franchise and its management which would help him glue the entire squad together.?</p>



<p>Talking about his batting stats in the recently concluded IPL 2021, Agarwal plundered 441 runs at an impressive average of 40.09 and maintained a healthy strike rate of 140.44.</p>



<p>Punjab Kings (PBKS) should consider Mayank Agarwal as a potent captaincy option and he can solve a long term captaincy headache for the management.</p>



<p><strong><span class="has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color">ALSO READ: </span></strong><a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/bcci-to-shift-tata-ipl-2022-to-south-africa-or-sri-lanka-amid-surge-in-covid-cases/"><strong>Tata IPL 2022: BCCI to shift Tata IPL 2022 to South Africa or Sri Lanka amid surge in covid cases</strong></a></p>



<h3><strong>David Warner:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/12/David-warner.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-81616" /><figcaption>Image Source: BCCI/IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>The cricket pundits rate Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH?s) move to leave out David Warner as an extremely disgusting decision. Warner had an upsetting fallout with the franchise during the IPL 2021 where he got sacked from his captaincy and then comprehensively got removed from the team.</p>



<p>The fallout could be due to Warner?s poor run of form, but as they say - Form is temporary, Class is permanent - Warner returned back to his sublime touch in the very next ICC T20 World Cup 2021 and became the player of the tournament.</p>



<p>From a batting perspective, Warner is a must-buy for the Punjab Kings (PBKS) as the franchise has always found itself surrounded by exciting talent with little international exposure. David Warner brings composure and vivid experience with himself which will be helpful for the youngsters in the team.</p>



<p>Moreover, his prowess as the captain of the side is also exceptional. He led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) to its only IPL title back in 2016. His win percentage as the skipper is also encouraging. Warner took his team over the winning rope on 52 per cent of occasions.</p>



<p>Also under Warner?s captaincy, SRH reached the playoff two times barring the one in which SRH won the IPL.</p>



<p>Punjab Kings (PBKS) would be happy to take his services and value his past contributions. If he becomes available, Warner is surely going to break the banks of several teams in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction.</p>



<h3><strong>Eoin Morgan:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/08/Eoin-Morgan.jpg" alt="Vivo IPL 2021: 4 Players who will be axed from the team in IPL 2022 if they don?t play well in IPL 2021" class="wp-image-69027" /></figure>



<p>The other captaincy option would be England?s limited-overs skipper Eoin Morgan. Punjab Kings (PBKS) need an exceptional leader and Morgan has all the required traits of an exceptional captain.</p>



<p>The former Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) skipper, Eoin Morgan, was fantastic with his captaincy in the recently concluded IPL 2021. Though his batting became an area of concern, his apt captaincy was admired by everyone.</p>



<p>He raised KKR from penultimate position to the runner-ups in the IPL 2021. Moreover, Morgan recently took his national side, England, to ICC T20 World Cup 2021 semifinals.</p>



<p>Morgan?s T20I stats would encourage IPL franchises to consider him as a valuable player. Though his IPL records as a batsman aren?t amazing, he can certainly prove his worth in gold with a new opportunity.</p>



<p>Eoin Morgan has represented Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the past and the southpaw can possibly return to the Mohali based franchise in the forthcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).&nbsp;</p>



<p>The Englishmen would also be eager to bounce back in the lucrative T20 league and improve his tattered batting stats.</p>
