Ishan Kishan
Ishan Kishan’s purchase by Mumbai Indians for a total of 15.25 crores made him the most expensive player to be sold in the IPL 2022 auction. The youthful MI wicketkeeper-batsman lived up to his reputation in the team’s first few games by hitting two half-centuries, but he has since lost his form. In eight games, he has scored 199 runs with a strike rate of 108.15 and an average of 28.43.
Shardul Thakur
From the 2018 to 2021 season, Shardul Thakur was a great performer for Chennai Super Kings. As a result of his statistics, Delhi Capitals (DC) decided to purchase his services at the super auction for a staggering amount of Rs 10.75 crores. But since joining DC, the all-around player hasn’t managed to rack up significant totals or impact the game. This season, in the seven games he has played for DC, he has taken just four wickets while scoring 80 runs at an average of 20.00.
Shahrukh Khan
Due to his powerful batting, Shahrukh Khan became well-known throughout the domestic competitions for his state cricket team Tamil Nadu. He was anticipated to be the cornerstone of Punjab’s middle order because Punjab Kings made the highest offer for him of Rs 9 crore. With the bat, he is yet to have an impact, scoring just 98 runs for Punjab in seven games overall, at an average of 16.22 and a strike rate of 100.00.
David Tim
Tim David was paid INR 8.25 crores by MI because they believed he will repeat his BBL and other T20 league performances in the IPL. Although he only had two opportunities to play, he did so with ordinary results, and ever since then, he has been warming the bench. Only 13 runs have been scored by David in his first two games.
Nitish Rana
Kolkata Knight Riders acquired Nitish Rana for INR 8 crore and forced him to stay with the team after releasing players like Shubhman Gill and Rahul Tripathi. He was anticipated to excel with the bat in the KKR middle order, but he has fallen short of the mark. While being the third-highest run scorer for KKR, he has only scored 143 runs in eight games at an average of 17.88 and a strike rate of 136.19, with one half-century to his credit.
Shreyas Iyer ($12.25 million)
The Mumbai batsman was acquired by Kolkata Knight Riders for a whopping Rs. 12.25 crores after the two-time IPL champions outwitted Gujarat Titans and Delhi Capitals. Iyer has guided the Delhi Capitals to a comeback since taking over as team captain from Gautam Gambhir in the IPL 2018. The Delhi franchise returned to the IPL playoffs in 2019 after a seven-year absence, and the following year they made their final appearance, losing to Mumbai Indians. Iyer can bat in the middle order for any team, and he might even run for the manager. Iyer will be playing for his second organization after spending seven seasons with the Delhi Capitals.
Liam Livingstone
The Rajasthan Royals purchased Livingstone at the player auction for the 2019 Indian Premier League in December 2018. Before the 2020 IPL auction, the Rajasthan Royals released him.
After scoring his 348 runs at a strike rate of 178.46 during the inaugural season of The Hundred, Liam Livingstone was crowned Player of the Competition.
Along with his five wickets in the competition, he also demonstrated his bowling prowess by going 2 for 22 against New Zealand in the T20 World Cup semifinal.
Dan Weston, who previously worked for Livingstone’s Birmingham Phoenix, is also employed by Punjab Kings in the same capacity.
Liam Livingstone, an all-rounder for England, was purchased by Punjab Kings during the IPL 2022 Mega Auction for Rs 11.5 crore.
Wanindu Hasaranga
Royal Challengers Bangalore selected Wanindu Hasaranga, a right-handed all-rounder and bowler from Sri Lanka, in the IPL 2022 mega auction. Before the sale, Wanindu Hasaranga maintained a base price of Rs. 1 crore. In the previous season, he played for Royal Challengers Bangalore in place of Adam Zampa.
Hasaranga was a member of the Royal Challengers Bangalore team that traveled to the UAE in August 2021 for the second stage of the Indian Premier League (IPL). On September 20, 2021, against the Kolkata Knight Riders, he made his IPL debut. Wanindu Hasaranga got notoriety during India’s tour of Sri Lanka in July 2021 after being named player of the series in the T20I series between the two countries. He also served as the team’s captain.
Deepak Chahar .
In the 58 IPL games Chahar has played for MS Dhoni’s club since joining CSK in 2018, he has taken 58 wickets, giving him an economy rate of 7.70. Chahar has been Dhoni’s most important bowler in the PowerPlay overs, making the most of his ability to swing the ball. The 29-year-old was the subject of a bidding battle between the Chennai Super Kings, Rajasthan Royals, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Delhi Capitals. Once the player’s value had crossed the Rs. 10 crores mark, CSK entered the bidding war. After increasing the asking price to Rs. 13 crores, CSK urged Capitals to back down, but Rajasthan Royals resisted until the price hit Rs. 14 crores.
