The <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/tag/ipl-auction/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL 2023 auction</a> was done and dusted on December 23. All the ten participating franchises spent a total of INR 167 crores to acquire 80 players at the marquee event. Many top-drawer players such as Sam Curran, Ben Stokes, and Cameron Green featured at the auction and franchises went into a bidding war to sign them.

However, there were certain players, who despite stamping their authority on the cricket field time and time again, did not draw much attention from the franchises at the auction. And fans witnessed these cricketers taking home a substantially lower sum.

Here are 5 players who deserved more money at IPL 2023 auction:

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/vidhwath-kaverappa/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vidhwath Kaverappa</a> has set the Indian domestic circuit on fire with his stunning bowling displays. He wreaked havoc in the 2022 season of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and picked up 18 wickets in eight games for Karnataka that too at a superb economy of 6.36.&nbsp;

Kaverappa continued his good work in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2022 and bagged 17 wickets in eight matches at an economy of 3.53. He made the ball talk at the start of the innings and provided his side with early breakthroughs. The ace pacer also delivered the goods in the slog overs.

Given Kaverappa’s stature in the domestic arena was on a meteoric rise, it was expected that he would fetch big bucks at the IPL 2023 auction but it was not to be. Punjab Kings acquired his services for just INR 20 lakh at the marquee event.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/i-am-someone-who-would-blindly-trust-mike-hussey-n-jagadeesan-opens-up-on-relationship-with-csk-coach/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Narayan Jagadeesan</a> has been a bankable name in the Indian domestic circuit. The 27-year-old has featured in 44 List-A matches and scored 2090 runs at an average of 49.76. Talking about the shortest format, he has scored 1064 runs in 51 games at a strike rate of 118.61.

Jagadeesan took the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2022 by storm with his blistering performances. He put up an exhibition of his swashbuckling stroke play and smashed a staggering tally of 830 runs in eight games at a strike rate of 125.37, which includes five blistering centuries.

Jagadeesan has been in a pristine touch of late and has the versatility to play at the top order and the middle order. Also, he has a safe pair of hands behind the stumps. Therefore, when the wicketkeeper-batter went under the hammer at the auction, one anticipated teams to go all guns blazing to rope him. But there were not many bids for the Coimbatore-born and he was sold to Kolkata Knight Riders for INR 90 lakh.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/ipl-2023-sikandar-raza-elated-to-be-a-part-of-punjab-kings/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sikandar Raza</a> is one of the finest all-rounders that Zimbabwe cricket has produced. He has featured in 158 T20 games and aggregated 3109 runs at a strike rate of 129.81. On the bowling front, the 36-year-old has bagged 79 wickets at an economy of 7.34. He has been phenomenal in the international arena too, scoring 1259 runs in 66 T20Is at a strike rate of 128.86 and picking up 38 wickets for his side.&nbsp;

Raza set the T20 World cup 2022 ablaze with his spectacular performances. The batting all-rounder took to-quality bowling attacks to the cleaners and smashed 219 runs in eight games at a strike rate of 147.97. Also, he bamboozled batters with his variations and bagged 10 wickets at an impeccable economy of 6.50.

The Sialkot-born has been in the form of his life and fans expected the franchises to break their bank to acquire him. However, only Punjab Kings showed interest in signing Raza and the ace all-rounder could only fetch INR 50 lakh at the recently culminated player auction.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/9-runs-off-6-balls-made-me-feel-i-have-nothing-to-lose-daniel-sams-after-delivering-match-winning-last-over/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daniel Sams</a> has been a prominent figure in the T20 circuit. The 30-year-old has featured in 116 games in the shortest format and picked up 135 wickets at an economy of 8.74. Also, he has hammered 1092 runs at a stunning strike rate of 152.94. Sams has shown his might in the international arena as well. He has hammered 106 runs in 10 T20Is at a staggering strike rate of 170.96 and bagged seven wickets for Australia.

The ace all-rounder has many variations up his sleeve and batters have found him difficult to tackle, especially at the fag end of the innings. Sams has also shown his might with the new ball and provided early breakthroughs to his side. Further, he is more than handy with the bat and has shown his batting might on many occasions.

Sams, with his ability to contribute in both departments, is a valuable addition to any side. Also, him being a left-arm pacer brings variety to the bowling attack. Therefore, when the Australian all-rounder arrived at the auction, one felt that franchises would go hammer and tongs to acquire him. But the Milperra-born garnered interest from only Lucknow Super Giants and was acquired by them at his base price of INR 75 lakh.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-appeal/top-5-performances-of-shakib-al-hasan-in-ipl-history-4052/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shakib Al Hasan</a> has been a giant of a player in the shortest format of the game. The 35-year-old has featured in 383 T20 games and amassed 6301 runs at a strike rate of 122.18. On the bowling front, he has bagged an insane tally of 433 wickets at an economy of 6.82.

The veteran cricketer has been a match-winner for Bangladesh across formats, with both bat and ball. In the T20Is, Shakib has amassed 2243 runs in 109 matches at a strike rate of 121.76 and picked up 128 wickets at an economy of 6.83.

The ace all-rounder can shepherd the innings beautifully and can also swiftly switch gears to dismantle any bowling attack. With the ball, Shakib has the might to bowl at any phase of the game. Moreover, his inclusion brings a wealth of experience to a team.

A player of Shakib’s caliber is an asset to a side and one thought that the franchises would go into a bidding war to pick him. But surprisingly, no team apart from Kolkata Knight Riders were interested in signing the ace all-rounder and the southpaw fetched only INR 1.5 crore at the auction.
