Then there is MS Dhoni, who keeps adding more value to his already topping IPL death overs records. However, he may not have a part in what we are about to talk about.

Stats Insights
One can always expect a good season from Virat Kohli, David Warner, Jos Buttler, and KL Rahul, as these were the most regular names in the orange cap winners list, every season.
Shubman Gill, the new sensation, will be an important player to focus on. He must be positive on bringing his international cricket form into his Gujarat Titans camp.
Meanwhile, many emerging cricketers, like Tilak Varma, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Ayush Badoni, are expected to give tough competition. Ruturaj has already started the season well!
The overseas talents, Faf du Plessis, Nicholas Pooran, and Kyle Mayers, are in some form among the overseas batters this season.
Finally, there will also be a huge expectation on whether someone will break Virat’s record of 973 runs in a single IPL season.
