Ishan Kishan will be the subject of attention of many outfits. He was one of the costliest players in the last auctions. Here, we take a look at the list of three franchises which could target Ishan Kishan in IPL 2025 Mega Auctions.
1) Royal Challengers Bengaluru
RCB will definitely look at a wicket-keeper and possibly a left-handed opener who can partner with Virat Kohli. If KL Rahul is available, they might go with him. However, if he is hard to get, RCB could have other alternatives in mind and Ishan Kishan might be one of them.
Ishan Kishan will like it at Chinnaswamy Stadium as the short boundaries will help his stroke-making. The cricketer may also have a captaincy future at this franchise although it might not come to him right away. For both parties, this will be a decent deal.
2) Chennai Super Kings
CSK is one of the franchises which could target Ishan Kishan in IPL 2025 Mega Auctions. While CSK is not in need of a wicketkeeper now, they must have a serious eye on this slot for the future. The team anyway needs a partner for Ruturaj Gaikwad at the top.
Ishan Kishan will be a fine target for the franchise. He could flourish in CSK and revive his career. The Jharkhand man also ticks most of the boxes for the profile needed by CSK.
3) Gujarat Titans
Gujarat Titans will have the task of replacing Wriddhiman Saha. The veteran was not great last season and this was one of the reasons why the franchise could not do well.
Now, GT might consider hiring Ishan Kishan and asking him to bat as an opener. B Sai Sudharsan could have a role at No.3. Considering Shubman Gill enjoys a good rapport with Ishan Kishan, the GT skipper could convince his management to go for the cricketer.
