Ayush Badoni has been in stunning form in the ongoing Delhi Premier League. Recently, he played a record-breaking innings. The value of his stocks is very high now. While LSG might retain him, they might also release if limited retentions are allowed. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of three teams which could target Ayush Badoni if he is released by LSG.
1) Rajasthan Royals
RR has been reliant on Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell to finish games recently. However, they would like an Indian option there, which will further strengthen their Indian core.
With Riyan Parag playing at No.4, RR might need one more youngster in the lower middle order. Ayush would be a good choice for the management to consider.
2) Royal Challengers Bengaluru
RCB is one of the teams which could target Ayush Badoni if he is released by LSG. RCB is in need of players who can be good with their range hitting, something that they lack now with the retirement of Dinesh Karthik.
In this regard, Ayush could be a good answer for the side. He is young and also offers a bit of spin. Considering RCB needs to make its Indian core stronger, Ayush would be a good investment for them. Chinnaswamy is also a venue that Ayush might like.
3) Sunrisers Hyderabad
SRH has only one good Indian batter in the form of Abhishek Sharma. While Nitish Kumar Reddy is new, Rahul Tripathi could be inconsistent. The likes of Abdul Samad could be released. You cannot always rely on your overseas core to do the job.
In this aspect, Ayush will be a good choice for SRH to target. He can finish games and he can also learn from the likes of Heinrich Klaasen. His off-spin will further add balance to the side. The Delhi man will also be a captaincy contender in the future.
