Big Paydays, No T20 World Cup 2024: Top IPL Earners Who Missed Out

The Indian squad for the 2024 T20 World Cup was revealed on, April 30. Later this year, Rohit Sharma will captain the Indian team in the major tournament, with Hardik Pandya serving as his deputy.

Young players like Arshdeep Singh, Rishabh Pant, and Yashasvi Jaiswal have also been given the chance to compete in the global event wearing the blue jersey.

Simultaneously, a few more elite Indian cricket players were left out of the T20 World Cup 2024 roster. The Indian players on this list have contracts worth above 10 crore for the 2024 Indian Premier League, but not selected in T20 world cup 2024 squad.

IPL Earners Who Missed T20 World Cup 2024:

KL Rahul - ₹17 crore

KL Rahul, the captain of the Lucknow Super Giants, is one of the fashionable Indian players who has won the highest offer at the IPL auction, having bid a whopping 17 crore. Despite his excellent form, he cannot overcome his recent really bad performance and the fact that selectors are ignoring him for T20 world cup.

Ishan Kishan - ₹15.25 crore

The colorful young wicketkeeper-batsman in the Indian Premier League is a fan favorite, and his price tag reflects that. The Mumbai Indians even paid him Rs 15.25 crore to retain him. Despite this, Ishan Kishan was not given the opportunity to be a wicketkeeper since players like Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul were already in the team.

Deepak Chahar - ₹14 crore

Unfortunately Deepak Chahar, has to deal with injuries somewhat frequently. Despite earning a salary of up to Rs 14 crore with Chennai Super Kings and bowling with excellent velocity, he was unable to go past the World Cup sixteen due to physical issues.

Shreyas Iyer - ₹12.25 crore

Shreyas Iyer was first signed by Kolkata Knight Riders for an incredible Rs 12.25 crore. His batting average and leadership abilities, meanwhile, were not considered significant enough by the selectors this time around.

Harshal Patel - ₹11.75 crore

Punjab Kings gave (IPL 2023) Purple Cap winner Harshal Patel an incredible Rs 11.75 crore. You will undoubtedly agree with his deadly death bowling, but it's possible that concerns about his performance outside of the IPL kept him from being chosen.

Even though these gifted players won't be competing, the T20 World Cup is expected to be an exciting event, and their absence will undoubtedly be discussed throughout.

These omissions serve as a reminder of how crucial reliable international results are to IPL triumph. Even while the IPL is a fantastic stage for showcasing potential, when choosing the World Cup squad, selectors undoubtedly give priority to recent performance in national colors.
