Cash-rich Indian Premier League (IPL) often springs surprises as different franchises spend crores to splurge on lesser-known talents. IPL 2024 auction was also no different.
Uncapped Indian cricketers Shubham Dubey and Sameer Rizvi’s fortunes turned overnight and they became millionaires after Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) picked them up for ₹5.8 crore and ₹8.4 crore respectively.
However, there were no takers for South Africa batsman Rilee Rossouw, Australian batter Steve Smith and Indian veterans Karun Nair and Manish Pandey. Quite expectedly, there were very few takers for the overseas keepers and spinners as the likes of Josh Inglis, Kusal Mendis, Adil Rashid and Mujeeb Ur Rahman went unsold.
