10 Most expensive players in IPL auction history
Here are the 10 most costly buys in IPL extravaganza so far.
8. Yuvraj Singh - 16 Crores (2015)
The man of ICC tournaments for India, Yuvraj Singh, didn’t have a fruitful career in the Indian Premier League. Before retiring in the year 2019, he was part of a number of franchises. Punjab Kings, Pune Warriors India, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Delhi Capitals, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Mumbai Indians were among the teams he represented. Delhi Capitals (formerly Delhi Daredevils) acquired him for a hefty price of 16 crores, the highest auction bid at the time.
He wasn’t successful for the Delhi franchise that year. With two fifties, he scored 248 runs and just took one wicket in the entire tournament as a bowler. As a result, in later auctions, he was released.
His most successful stint was with the Sunrisers when he was able to win one IPL trophy. He eventually retired from all forms of cricket in 2019 after only four matches with the Mumbai Indians. He was one of India’s greatest all-rounders in the game’s history.
