George Bailey, the Current Australian T20 skipper has been in a terrific form in the shortest version of the game. He had a good outing against England in the recently concluded KFC International T20’s. He is suited well to Indian conditions which is evident from his performances when the Aussies toured India last year. His recent performances is more than enough to earn him an IPL contract. He has already been a part of IPL band wagon when he represented the Chennai Super Kings in the second and third editions in which he was rather unimpressive.
This time around, he will be one of the most wanted name in the IPL auctions. Teams like Delhi Daredevils, Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals who are searching for a new skipper to lead the side in the IPL will be tempted to sign Bailey.
