IPL 2024: These Legendary Players Who Could Never Play IPL, Anderson Also Included! The countdown’s on! IPL season 17 kicks off on March 22nd, with Chennai Super Kings clashing against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the opening match.

Mushi, the Missed Wicketkeeper?

Bangladesh’s star wicketkeeper-batsman Mushfiqur Rahim is another big name missing from the IPL. He’s been in the auction pool, but no team has picked him up yet. Mystery!

Broad on the Bench? Remember Stuart Broad? Yeah, the English speedster who played in the very first T20 World Cup back in 2007! He was even part of the Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings) squad, but never got a chance to play an IPL match.
