Critics are sharpening their knives, pointing out that players are often aware of their international duties well in advance. Duckett's timing raises eyebrows, especially when many would have expected him to juggle both responsibilities. With the IPL being a massive draw, missing out is a tough pill to swallow for fans eager to see him shine.
As the IPL gears up for another thrilling season, all eyes will be on how teams adapt to last-minute changes. Will Duckett's absence be a blessing in disguise for his side, or has he just missed out on a chance to tonk some runs on the big stage?
