No. 1 | Nehal Wadhera | With 350 runs in 20 matches, the Punjab-born batter has made a mark with his impactful outings for the Mumbai Indians. He strikes at 140 and has smashed 32 fours and 18 maximums, and is one of the contenders on whom the franchise could use their Right to Match (RTM) card. (Image Source: X)

No. 2 | Rajvardhan Hangargekar | The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) acquired the Maharashtra all-rounder amid much fanfare in 2022. However, he played only two matches across three seasons and will again be put under the hammer this time around. For his express pace and big-hitting skills, he won't be at the dearth of any suitors. (Image Source: iplt20.com)

No. 3 | Ashutosh Sharma | The Punjab Kings (PBKS) star had a breakthrough run last year. He smashed 189 runs at a strike rate of 167.26 with the help of 10 fours and 15 sixes.

No. 4 | R Sai Kishore | The left-arm spinner has been a stellar prospect in domestic cricket off late. He has picked 13 wickets in 10 matches in the IPL. His tall frame, quick pace, and defensive lines make him a tough nut to crack particularly in the middle overs - which can interest several teams in securing his services. (Image Source: iplt20.com)

No. 5 | Vijaykumar Vyshak | The Karnataka pacer is known for his exceptional ability to hit the block hole at will.
