Harry Brook (England)

Exciting England batsman Brook has plundered runs in all three international formats and has a strike rate of 141.54 in the T20 version.

He was snapped up by Sunrisers Hyderabad for $1.6 million in the previous auction but failed to make much of an impact, barring a century early in this year's IPL.

The 24-year-old then managed just 169 runs in six World Cup matches, but recently hit a match-winning 43 in a West Indies ODI and has kept his base price at $240,000.

Gerald Coetzee (South Africa)

One of the breakout stars of the World Cup, Coetzee finished inside the top five bowlers in the competition with 20 wickets.

The South African quick made his debut early this year in a Test against West Indies at Centurion and has since played every format to add to the Proteas' pace riches.

Coetzee, 23, is looking to boost his career in the money-spinning IPL and has kept himself in the top bracket with a base price of $240,000.

Wanindu Hasaranga (Sri Lanka)

Hasaranga has built a reputation of taking wickets at crucial junctures with his leg-spin and has been Sri Lanka's go-to bowler in white-ball formats.

The all-rounder earned a $1.43 million contract at Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2022 but was released by the team ahead of this year's auction.

He has claimed 158 wickets in limited-overs formats and has a T20 strike rate of more than 124 as an attacking middle-order batsman.

The 26-year-old missed the World Cup with injury but should expect another lucrative IPL contract with a base price of $180,000.
