IPL 2025 - Batsmen to Watch Out

Indian Premier League is all set to go on the floors in March 2025. The schedule is yet to be announced the franchises are ready with their respective squads after the mega auction and the management will now be working towards the right combination of the playing XI.

In the previous edition of IPL, we witnessed some of the action with the bat. The records were broken, new records were made, run chases, highest scorers were made and many more.

The batters will be again in the spotlight for IPL 2025. When it comes to the Indian Premier League, the batters are the real deal and in most cases; they dominate the matches.

The primary reason for the dominance of the batters is the Indian pitches. Over the years, the inclination of the Indian pitches has been shifted from the spinners towards the batting unit. There is a clear bounce on every pitch and the ball comes on the bat clearly.

Another reason batters are in the spotlight in IPL is the participation of overseas batsmen who are doing their jobs exceptionally well. By being part of multiple T20 cricket leagues, they have immense experience in making the right judgment and taking risks to score quick runs in the game.

In this article, we have listed down the names of 5 of the best batters who will be at the centre stage during IPL 2025.

1) Jos Buttler - Gujarat Titans

England’s T20 expert batsman and skipper, Jos Buttler, will be seen in a different jersey in IPL 2025 after a long time. He was part of the Rajasthan Royals squad for 6 years but this year, the player was released from the team and Gujarat Titans have bought him for a price of INR 15.75 Crore. Buttler’s credentials are strong he will be part of the top order for the team.

2) Suryakumar Yadav - Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians went through a tough time in the previous edition of the league but one player who has stood the test of time is India’s T20 skipper Suryakumar Yadav. He is currently ranked 4th in ICC T20 Men’s ranking but Surya is the backbone of Mumbai Indians. He is a complete package who can win matches under pressure for Mumbai.

Throughout IPL 2024 and in the recent international fixtures, Travis has been part of the news because of his aggressive batting in the T20 format.
