Chris Morris’ previous record of INR 16.25 crore was broken by Sam Curran to become the most expensive buyer in an IPL auction.

Curran’s price surpassed the previous highest bid of Rs 16.25 crore, paid by the Rajasthan Royals for South African all-rounder Chris Morris in 2021. Cameron Green became the most expensive Australian buyer in the IPL auction history in a Rs 17.5 crore payday as Mumbai Indians invested in the future.
