Big Wins for Uncapped Talents:
Uncapped Indian cricketers stole the spotlight as Shubham Dubey and Sameer Rizvi experienced overnight transformations in their fortunes. Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings secured their services for ₹5.8 crore and ₹8.4 crore, respectively. Another set of uncapped Indian talents, M Shahrukh Khan and Kumar Kushagra found themselves on the receiving end of massive paydays.
Starc and Cummins Shatter Records:
Mitchell Starc became the costliest player in IPL history, with Kolkata Knight Riders splurging a staggering ₹24.75 crore to acquire his services. This move surpassed the record set just an hour earlier when Sunrisers Hyderabad secured Pat Cummins for ₹20.5 crore. The two Australian pacers emerged as the top buys of the auction.
Indian Pacers Bag Lucrative Deals:
Indian pacers Umesh Yadav and Shivam Mavi fetched impressive sums, with Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants investing ₹5.8 crore and ₹6.4 crore, respectively. The auction also saw New Zealand all-rounder Daryl Mitchell being picked up by Chennai Super Kings for ₹14 crore.
Fierce Bidding Wars:
The auction room witnessed intense battles for players like Harshal Patel, who became Punjab Kings' prized possession at ₹11.75 crore. West Indies T20 captain Rovman Powell sparked a bidding war between Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders before being sold for a whopping ₹7.40 crore.
Hits and Misses:
While some players celebrated their success, others faced disappointment. Travis Head, the World Cup final hero, secured a deal with Sunrisers Hyderabad for ₹6.8 crore. However, prominent names like Steve Smith, Karun Nair, and Manish Pandey went unsold.
Overseas Players Face Tough Times:
Overseas keepers and spinners, including Josh Inglis, Kusal Mendis, Adil Rashid, and Mujeeb Ur Rahman, failed to find takers, indicating a focus on homegrown talent in this year's auction.
