The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 mini-auction took place in Kochi on Friday (December 23). England all-rounder Sam Curran became the most expensive player in the history of IPL auction after he was acquired by Punjab Kings (PBKS) for a whopping amount of INR 18.50 crore. Meanwhile, his England teammate Harry Brook was roped in by Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) for INR 13.25 crores.

Kavya Maran, the daughter of SRH owner Kalanithi Maran, marked her present at the IPL auction table, and was all over the moon after acquiring 𝔉the services of the young England batter.

Interestingly, she did not bid on Kane Williamson who was the first player to be sold in the set 1. He went to Gujarat Titans (GT) for his base price of Rs 2 crore.

Kavya had come to the auction having made up her mind and with the help of legends Brian Lara and Muttiah Muralitharan got her best buys.
