IPL Auction 2025: Shreyas Iyer Shatters Records to Become IPL’s 2nd Most Expensive Player Ever
In a historic turn of events at the IPL Auction 2025, Shreyas Iyer became the second most expensive player in IPL history, securing a massive ₹26.75 crore deal with Punjab Kings.
The bidding war between KKR, Delhi Capitals, and Punjab Kings saw Iyer's price soar past the previous record held by Mitchell Starc.
The 29-year-old, who led Kolkata Knight Riders to their third IPL title, made a sensational comeback after missing IPL 2023 due to injury.
His remarkable form in domestic cricket, including three Syed Mushtaq Ali hundreds, further fueled the bidding frenzy.
With 3,127 IPL runs and strong leadership credentials, Iyer's acquisition marks a milestone in IPL history as one of the most sought-after players of the season.
Arshdeep Singh has become one of the most coveted talents in the IPL 2025 Mega Auction, with Punjab Kings securing the young pacer for a staggering ₹18 crore. Known for his lethal yorkers and ability to perform under pressure, Arshdeep has proven to be an invaluable asset in the IPL. His remarkable consistency with the ball, especially in the death overs, has made him a standout performer in recent seasons.
