Seven of Australia’s ODI World Cup winning squad – Pat Cumminis, Travis Head, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Steve Smith, Josh Inglis and Sean Abbott – are among 25 players to enter the 2024 IPL player auction with a base price of INR 2 crore (USD 240,000 approximately).
New Zealand batting allrounder Rachin Ravindra, who scored 578 runs and took five wickets at the World Cup, has listed his base price at INR 50 lakhs.
Some of the other significant players in the highest base price band are fast bowler Gerald Coetzee, who was South Africa’s highest wicket-taker at the World Cup, and England batter Harry Brook, who was released by Sunrisers Hyderabad, along with Harshal Patel, Shardul Thakur, Umesh Yadav and Kedar Jadhav.
