Each time an Indian Premier League auction comes around, it produces new millionaires. This time, though, we saw the IPL bumped up to a 10-team event with the addition of two new sides - Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Supergiants – which led to a bigger, grander auction. While there were some new entrants to to the millionaire club, some existing millionaires only got a bigger hike.
On the first day of the IPL 2022 mega auction, we saw Mumbai Indians break the bank for one of their own, Ishan Kishan, who was bought at Rs 15.25 crore, making him the fourth most expensive buy in the history of IPL. That bid was followed by some intense bidding efforts from Chennai Super Kings to bring back pace-bowling all-rounder Deepak Chahar for Rs 14 crore.
One expensive bid on expected lines was that of Indian batter and former Delhi Capitals skipper Shreyas Iyer who was lapped up by Kolkata Knight Riders for Rs 12.25 crore. We also saw Indian pacer and lower-order hitter Shardul Thakur becoming a top buy at Rs 10.75 crore from Delhi Capitals.
Royal Challengers Bangalore also bought back two of their existing players – India’s Harshal Patel and Sri Lanka’s Wanindu Hasaranga at Rs 10.75 crore each. Sunrisers Hyderabad also came into the foray by acquiring the services of West Indies wicket-keeping batter Nicholas Pooran.
However, the fourth most expensive winning bid of the auction, that actually came on day two, was for English all-rounder Liam Livingstone. After an intense bidding war ensued between his former franchise Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings, it was the latter that acquired his services at Rs 11.50 crore.
The second day of the auction also ended up becoming a big pay day for Jofra Archer, who Mumbai Indians bought for Rs 8 crore, despite his unavailability this season.
Singapore’s Tim David, who had been creating a lot of waves in the build-up to the auction with his performances in the Big Bash League and currently at the Pakistan Super League, became part of the Mumbai Indians set-up at Rs 8.5 crore.
Sunrisers Hyderabad followed it up by rewarding West Indies bowling all-rounder Romario Shepherd with an IPL contract worth Rs 7.75 crore.
