Amit Mishra
Amit Mishra, the wily 41-year-old Indian leg spinner, is one of the highest wicket-takers in the Indian Premier League. He has taken 172 wickets in the tournament in 153 matches for Deccan Chargers, Delhi Capitals, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and his current team Lucknow Super Giants thus far.
In the 2023 season of the IPL, Mishra has been used as an impact player multiple times by LSG, owing to his ever-deteriorating fitness in comparison to some of the better athletes in the team. The Indian international has played just 6 matches and picked up 6 wickets in this edition of the tournament. Since Amit Mishra is constantly being protected by LSG management to extend his career match by match, we shouldn’t be surprised if he gets released by them at the end of this season and doesn’t take part in the IPL next year.
