Rishabh Pant became the most expensive player ever to be sold at this year’s Indian Premier League auction after the Lucknow Super Giants acquired the wicketkeeper-batter’s services for ₹27 crore on Sunday.
The title-winning captain of IPL 2024, Shreyas Iyer, fetched the second-highest bid, going for ₹26.75 crore to Punjab Kings.
Rasikh Dar, an effective bowler in the death overs, stole the spotlight after collecting a sum of ₹6 crore from the Royal Challengers Bengaluru on the second day of bidding. This amount happened to be 20 times more than his base price.

Other interesting picks included Anshul Kamboj, who recently picked 10 wickets in the Ranji Trophy. The 23-year-old was snapped up by the Chennai Super Kings for ₹3.40 crore.
Venkatesh Iyer was arguably the most surprising pick of the auction, with Kolkata Knight Riders breaking the bank and splurging 23.75 crore for acquiring the services of the all-rounder. In all probability, the defending champion will look to name him the captain of the side.
