3 Players for whom both CSK and MI got into a bidding war in IPL 2024 Auction
3. Pat Cummins
Pat Cummins entered the IPL 2024 auction after the 2021 T20 World Cup win, the 2023 Ashes retainer and then winning the ICC World Cup 2023 in India. He was in high demand given his previous outing in IPL saw him not only take wickets but score a 14-ball fifty as well.
CSK was the first to bid for Pat Cummins and MI followed suit. A fierce battle took place between the two franchises, raising Cummins’ price to INR 4.8 Cr with CSK. However, RCB and SRH entered the bidding war as well. CSK continued to bid with MI bowing out, but when the bid raised to INR 7.8 Cr, CSK folded as well. Finally, Sunrisers Hyderabad successfully bid INR 20.50 Cr, a record price for the Australian captain.
