After two days of intense bidding in Bengaluru, the teams in IPL 2022 have finally built a balanced squad that can serve them well in the next three years. Out of the 204 (137 Indians and 67 overseas) of the 296 players who went under the hammer earned a deal, but the remaining 93 failed to, with all franchises combined spending over INR 551 crore.
Young wicket-keeper batsman Ishan Kishan ended up as the most expensive buy of IPL 2022 mega auction. Mumbai Indians broke the bank to reacquire Ishan’s service, roping him in for INR 15.25 crore. Shreyas Iyer landed in Kolkata Knight Riders for INR 12.25 crore on the first day after an intense bidding war.
Deepak Chahar became Chennai Super Kings’ most expensive buy ever, bagging an INR 14 crore deal after his team refused to budge down against others chasing him.
Meanwhile, some big names like Suresh Raina, Steve Smith among other didn’t attract any bidding over the course of the two days.
Meanwhile, here is how the 10 teams stack up after IPL 2022 mega auction.
