IPL Auction 2023

Ahead of the IPL 2023 auction, Sportstar takes a look at the most expensive auction picks in the history of the Indian Premier League.

In November, the 30-year-old was retained by CSK for the heavy price tag as he continues to be the franchise’s most proficient bowling option in the PowerPlays. The England Test captain enters the auction at a base price of INR 2 crore. In the 2018 auction, Chahar was drafted in by CSK for INR 80 lakh, where he revelled over four seasons, recording 58 wickets from as many games. The 27-year-old will now hope for a return to the cash-rich league after setting himself at a base price of INR 1 crore. England’s all-format talisman Ben Stokes was bought by the now-defunct Rising Pune Supergiant for a hefty price of INR 14.5 crore ahead of its second and last year in the IPL in 2017. Before Kishan’s signing, captain Rohit Sharma was MI’s biggest signing at the auction, having paid INR 9.2 crore for him ahead of IPL 2011. Pooran played for Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2022 season after being picked up in the mega auction for Rs. Yuvraj, struggling to regain his spot in Team India, had received another big bid of INR 14 crore the previous season from RCB. Morris emerged as the leading wicket-taker for Rajasthan in IPL 2021 with 15 wickets in 11 matches. He was also the Player of the Match in the final where England beat Australia. Ben Stokes was signed by Chennai Super Kings in the 2023 IPL Auction. The right-arm medium pacer also picked six wickets with an economy of 6.79 in the tournament.

The IPL auction 2023 is underway and it has already seen three of the highest bids ever made for Sam Curran, Ben Stokes, and Cameron Green.

Before Sam Curran and Ben Stokes’ record shattering bids, Harry Brook was sold to Sunrisers Hyderabad for INR 13.25 crores. With Stokes’ bid, the 2023 IPL Auction has now seen three of the highest auction bids in the history of the tournament. Australian all-rounder Cameron Green was also clearly in demand as a bidding war broke out for him as well. English cricketer Sam Curran has made history today by fetching the highest bid ever made for any player – a whopping INR 18.5 crores from Punjab Kings. [December 23, 2022] Let’s deep dive into the exciting happenings of the IPL Action 2023.

Cameron Green and Ben Stokes also rake in the big bucks as allrounders spark intense bidding wars.

Having released Mavi to free up INR 7.75 crore for this auction, the Knight Riders went as far as INR 1 crore before bailing out of the race. With Josh Hazlewood's workload likely to be factored in, given Australia have potentially the WTC final and Ashes coming up back-to-back, Topley is an excellent back-up option for Royal Challengers at a base price of INR 1.5 crore. Raza was the top run-getter (219 at a strike rate of 147) and second highest wicket-taker (10 scalps) for Zimbabwe at the T20 World Cup. At his base price of INR 50 lakh, Raza could be a steal for the Punjab Kings, given the form he's been in. This is the most a franchise has paid to sign an overseas batter at an auction. He made 306 runs including two fifties at an average of 38.25 and a strike rate of 144.33. His ability to bat anywhere in the order and bowl at a lively pace landed him a massive payday in his first IPL auction. More recently, Brook put behind a disappointing T20 World Cup campaign to blast three centuries in the three-Test series England won 3-0. Green had shot into the limelight after a prolific T20I series in India, where he made 118 runs, including two half-centuries, at a strike rate of 214.54 at the top of the order. Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals also raised the paddle for Stokes, but it soon became clear their limited budgets were going to be a constraint. He has also improved his batting against spin: in 31 T20 innings since 2020, he has an average of 27.07 and a strike rate of 154.69. Mumbai went as far as INR 18 crore to try and line-up Curran alongside Jofra Archer, their other big-ticket England signing at the previous auction, but they were eventually outbid by Kings, who had begun the auction with the second-largest purse.

IPL Squads 2023: Here is the full list of players sold and how the 10 teams stack up with the IPL auction underway in Kochi on Friday.

Vaibhav Arora (INR 60 lakh), N. Upendra Yadav (INR 25 lakh), Sanvir Singh (INR 20 lakh), Samarth Vyas (INR 20 lakh), Vivrant Sharma (INR 2.6 crore), Mayank Markande (INR 50 lakh), Adil Rashid (INR 2 crore), Heinrich Klaasen (INR 5.25 crore), Mayank Agarwal (INR 8.25 crore), Harry Brook (INR 13.25 crore), Abdul Samad, Aiden Markram, Rahul Tripathi, Glenn Phillips, Abhishek Sharma, Marco Jansen, Washington Sundar, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Kartik Tyagi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, Umran Malik. The Indian Premier League (IPL) auction 2023 will be held on Friday, December 23, in Kochi.

IPL 2023 Auction: After a stunning Set 1, Set 2 took a intensity a notch higher as Sam Curran, Cameron Green and Ben Stokes broke records.

Other than being MI's most expensive player in history, Green became the costliest Australian in IPL auction and also the second costliest player in IPL's history. But then CSK bounced back with a bid of ₹15.25 crore, and then PBKS took it to ₹15.50 crore. But that wasn't all as Set 2 took the intensity level a little higher as England's T20 World Cup star Sam Curran broke the record for the most expensive buy in IPL history, purchased by PBKS for ₹18.5 crore. Then it was CSK and PBKS competing and then it looked like the latter prevailed with a bid of ₹15 crore. With the bid going past ₹5 crore, MI and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) began to battle hard and then it was only MI and RR left in the competition, and it crossed ₹10 crore. Curran also became the most expensive buy in IPL history.

Sunrisers Hyderabad, meanwhile, splashed 13.25 crore (£1.35m ) on Yorkshire and England batter Harry Brook. Four-hundred-and-five players went under the hammer, ...

They needed a spinner and gained the services of both Adil Rashid and Akeal Hosein, the latter also offering extra firepower with the bat. He occupies this role for both Surrey and Oval Invincibles and boasts a T20 strike rate in excess of 150. A back-up wicketkeeper for Jos Buttler, the South African has a strike rate of 153.56 from 26 T20 outings. Like Curran, he is coming in hot from the T20 World Cup and as a spin bowler could play back-up to Liam Livingstone. The West Indian, however, has only scored 247 runs at a not exactly pulse-racing strike rate of 123.50. In Australia, he emerged as a fine death bowler while his IPL strike rate (from 23 innings) is an impressive 149.77 - a big player. An allrounder to replace Jason Holder will have been on their shopping list and while they missed on the big guns (Cameron Green, Stokes, Sam Curran etc)., Sams is a fine alternative without breaking the bank. Mumbai Indians won the race to buy Cameron Green, paying a whopping 17.5 crore to secure his services - second only in price to Sam Curran. Bangladesh internationals Litton Das and Shakib Al Hasan were late overseas selections, with the former possibly plugging a hole in the wicketkeeping department. With 210 wickets and an economy of 7.95 from 170 T20 appearances, Jaydev Unadkat will be a player LSG are very happy to have got their hands on. KKR were late starters in the auction and with a small purse, didn't set the room alight. Kane Williamson is a possible opening partner or No.3 to fill the gap left by Jason Roy and Rahmanullah Gurbaz.

His compatriot, Ben Stokes was roped in Chennai Super Kings for INR 16.25 crore while their Australian counterpart, Cameroon Green was acquired for INR 17.50 crore bid from Mumbai Indians.

Who got what they wanted? Who missed out? A look at how the franchises fared at a historic IPL auction.

Picking up [Adam Zampa](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/adam-zampa-379504)at base price was a steal too. The losses: They couldn't get an allrounder back-up for Mitchell Marsh, who can be prone to injury. The losses: Went hard for Brook and Nicholas Pooran to get a No. They didn't win it because a lot of the time they played with four No. They managed to buy Odean Smith as back-up. The wins: They needed an overseas quick to replace Lockie Ferguson; they bought Josh Little, the first Ireland player ever sold at the IPL auction. [Harry Brook](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/harry-brook-911707)brings. They do not have an Indian back-up wicketkeeper to MS Dhoni, after failing to buy back N Jagadeesan. "Fits the age profile too," said owner Akash Ambani as Mumbai begin building a young core of players they can count on for the coming years. The wins: Punjab Kings were touted to break the bank for an allrounder, and they did so, making Sam Curran the most expensive player in IPL history. Knew the players they wanted. Who got what they wanted?

Overseas players are usually the flavour at the Indian Premier League (IPL) mini-auctions. The trend persisted in the 16th Player Auction on Friday.

Rahman had also set a base price of INR 1 crore for the IPL 2023 mini auction. The Afghanistan veteran was unable to play any games for KKR and thus had nothing to show IPL team management. The Afghan player had set a base price of INR 1 crore for himself but received no bids. As a result, the vast majority of players remained unsold.
