A total of 72 players were bought by the 10 Indian Premier League teams at the mini-auction.
Australian pacers Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins emerged as the most expensive buys as the 2024 Indian Premier League player auctions culminated at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai on Tuesday.
Cummins, who captained his country to the 2023 ICC Men’s ODI World Cup title, became the first player in IPL history to breach the Rs 20-crore barrier when he was snapped up for Rs 20.5 crores by Sunrisers Hyderabad after an intense bidding war with the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
