Win Projections to be updated soon
In the wake of the IPL auction, former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra expressed his opinion that teams would be willing to offer as much as INR 42 crore for star player Virat Kohli.
Prominent Australian pacers Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins shattered every record during the IPL 2024 auction. Cummins broke the record for the most expensive purchase in IPL history after signing with Sunrisers Hyderabad for INR 20.5 crore. But Mitchell soon pushed through the $20 crore mark to become the most expensive player in IPL history, shattering the previous record.
For an incredible INR 24.75 crore, the Kolkata Knight Riders acquired the elite bowler. Aakash Chopra made a comment regarding the matter, stating that, in light of Cummins and Starc’s prices, Indian players who excel in the IPL should be paid more.
“The 200 crore rupee purse should have 150 for the Indian players. For the international cricket players, the remaining INR 50 crore should be set aside.
According to Crictoday, Aakash Chopra stated that Virat Kohli would fetch INR 42 crore if he were to appear at the auction table.
A player who had not participated in the league for eight years received about 25 crore. This is not done. The Suresh Raina
It appeared that former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina shared Aakash Chopra’s viewpoint. Recalling that pacer Mohammed Shami makes merely five crores, while MS Dhoni earns twelve crores and Jasprit Bumrah earns fifteen, Raina expressed his opinion that it is unfair for foreign players to make so much money compared to Indian players, considering their talent level. In addition, he asked teams why they were still paying Australian bowler Mitchell Starc a high salary despite his nearly ten-year absence from the game.
“MS Dhoni for 12 crore, Mohammed Shami for 5 crore, and Jayprit Bumrah for 12 crore.” And the guy who participated in just 26 matches throughout an eight-year absence from the league received about 25 crore. It’s not over yet, Raina declared.
