***Official*** IPL 2024

Phillips is probably a better hitter than Markram. Plus he can bowl a few overs too.

So I'd have binned Markram sooner.
Markram is the better bat in this format and the better part-time off spinner. Their part-time bowling is largely redundant now though with the super subs, but yeah Markram isn't getting it done, so I'm definitely in favour of giving Glenn Phillips a try.

Yeah I'm wrong and that's why one was picked to play every IPL game this year and the other has played zero.

One also has 5 times as many T20 international wickets in half as many games as the other and that's because Phillips doesn't bowl much in the format as he's cr*p. Meanwhile Markram often bowls in the power play.
 
Roussouw is the right guy in the right places:

Highest successful chase in T20Is
Highest chase in the PSL
Now likely to be in the highest chase in the IPL, and in all T20s
