Rishabh Pant made history on Sunday by becoming the most expensive player ever in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The wicketkeeper-batter was sold for $3.2 million to Lucknow Super Giants. Pant surpassed Shreyas Iyer, who had previously gone to Punjab Kings for $3.18 million during the first day of the IPL mega auction held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Both Pant and Iyer are expected to lead their respective franchises in the IPL, the world’s richest domestic Twenty20 league, which is scheduled to begin on March 14 next year, with the final set for May 25.
Delhi Capitals may assign the captaincy to former Lucknow Super Giants skipper Lokesh Rahul, whom they secured for $1.67 million. The biggest surprise of the day came with all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer, who was sold to Kolkata Knight Riders for $2.83 million after intense bidding between Kolkata and Royal Challengers Bangalore.
