Ex-KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer had earlier become the most expensive player in IPL history after PBKS bought him for Rs 26.75 crore at IPL 2025 auction in Jeddah
LSG, however, splurged an insane amount of money (Rs 27 crore!) on buying former DC captain Rishabh Pant
Another big development on Day 1 of the auction was R Ashwin’s return to CSK for Rs 9.75 crore
PBKS used the RTM card to retain pacer Arshdeep Singh for Rs 18 crore
Yuzvendra Chahal, too, was acquired by PBKS for Rs 18 crore
Among foreigners, Jos Buttler to GT for Rs 15.75 crore was the costliest overseas buy
RR welcomed back Jofra Archer after buying the England pacer for Rs 12.50 crore
Australia speedster Josh Hazlewood (Rs 12.50 crore) also returned to RCB as they eye their maiden IPL title
