The IPL 2024 auction saw few players like Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins breach the INR 20 Crore mark, but there were a few good buys in the auction that went for their base price itself. Here in this article, we will have look at five good IPL buys that were bought for a relatively very cheaper price in the IPL 2024 auction that took place on December 19 at the Coca Cola Arena in Dubai.
1. Wanindu Hasaranga
The Sri Lankan all-rounder was expected to go for a very high price, likely above INR 10 Crore in the auction like in 2022. But this time, only Sunrisers showed interest in him as he was bought for his base price of INR 1.5 Crore.
The all-rounder will be a handy addition to the SRH lineup as he was the second highest wicket-taker in IPL 2022 after Chahal and also played a vital role for the Sri Lankan team to qualify for 2023 ODI World Cup.
