3 Most undervalued Australian players in IPL 2023
In total 13 Australian players will take part in IPL 2023. While some have received a whopping amount, it’s fair to say few are undervalued as per the standards set by them. In this piece, we will take a look at 3 Most undervalued Australian players in IPL 2023
David Warner – INR 6.25 crores
It’s fair to say that David Warner is the most undervalued Australian player in IPL 2023. The southpaw will get a salary of INR 6.25 crores in this year’s IPL, which is well below the standards he has set for himself. The Australian opener was acquired by Delhi Capitals in IPL 2022 auction for a low price and many touted it as one of the best buys. Warner is the highest overseas run scorer in the league and has 5881 runs to his name from 162 games at a strike rate of 140.69 to go with 4 hundreds and 55 half-centuries.

Mitchell Marsh – INR 6.50 crores
Mitchell Marsh is another undervalued Australian player in IPL 2023. The all-rounder was brought by Delhi Capitals in the IPL 2022 auction for just INR 6.50 crores. With the kind of player he is and the ability he possesses with both bat and bat, it’s fair to say that he received less money. Marsh of late has been one of the best T20 batters going around as he is consistently scoring runs for his side. In 29 IPL games, he has 476 runs at a strike rate of 123.32. Also, he has 24 wickets.
Josh Hazlewood- INR 7.75 crores
The third most undervalued Australian player in IPL 2023 is none other than pager Josh Hazelwood. The lanky pacer will receive INR 7.75 crores in this year’s IPL. He was acquired by the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL 2022 auction. But with the kind of pacer he is, it was expected that he would go for more than 10 crores. In 24 games so far, he has taken 32 wickets at an economy of 8.02.
