The ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 202♋2 mega-auction has reached the business end in Bengaluru. Quite a few players have earned a huge bracket today, while some have mi🍰ssed out as well.
One of the biggest newsmakers in the auction was pacer Deepak Chahar, who triggered a bidding war among the franchises. As many as four teams – Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Delhi Capitals (DC), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) – all battled it out for Chahar.
However, CSK pushed all the limits to grab their go-to man, especially in the powerplay overs. The MS Dhoni-led franchise invested as much as INR 14 crores to regain the services of Cha✨har. So now, the right-arm speedster has became the most exp😼ensive Indian bowler in IPL history.
Here is how Twitter reacted:
