Morris is now retired. Karen, who was voted the best player of the T20 World Cup 2022, is likely to get a hefty bid. He is 24 years old now and the team will try to rope him in with the hope of retaining him for a long time. Karen was bought by Punjab Kings in 2019 for a hefty price. After this he joined Chennai Super Kings. Chennai will try to add him to their team again. Ben Stokes and in-form batsman Harry Brook may also cost a lot. Brook has already proved his worth in limited overs as he recently scored centuries in all three Tests against Pakistan.
