Some of the most expensive buys in each IPL auction
MS Dhoni
The most successful skipper in IPL history was bought by the Super Kings in 2008 for $1.5 million. That amount seemed huge at the time, but the wicketkeeper has paid the franchise back handsomely. Dhoni led them to 5 titles (joint most) and the most match wins (113) in IPL history.
Ravindra Jadeja
One of the costliest picks ($2 million) by CSK in IPL auction history. Jadeja went on to be part of four title runs for the franchise. His last ball four in the IPL 2023 Final helped CSK claim a record 5th title. The all-rounder is CSK’s 2nd-highest wicket-taker and 8th-highest run scorer, having played 172 matches for the franchise.
Yuvraj Singh
Unlike Maxwell, RCB paying Yuvraj ₹14 crore did not end well for them in 2014. In the 14 matches he played, Yuvraj managed to score 376 runs at an average of 34.18 and a strike rate of 135.25. The all-rounder had poor returns with the ball, picking up just 5 wickets.
