CRICKET
While the likes of Sam Curran, Cameron Green and Ben Stokes raked in insane sums, many prominent players like Dawid Malan, Jimmy Neesham went unsold.
History was created on Friday during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 auction as three of the most expensive players in IPL were bought in just 30 minutes of bidding on December 23 in Kochi. While Sam Curran joined Punjab Kings for Rs 18.50 crore, there are many prominent players like Dawid Malan and Jimmy Neesham among others who went unsold.
Cameron Green became the second-most expensive recruit in IPL history when Mumbai Indians shelled out a staggering Rs 17.50 crore, while Ben Stokes was purchased by Chennai Super Kings (CSK) for Rs 16.25 crore, as he equalled the previous record set by Chris Morris for the most expensive overseas pick at IPL auction.
There were plenty of renowned names, who didn't get any takers though, including both Indian and overseas players.
