The IPL auction saw two Australian players breach the INR 20 Crore mark for the first time ever in its history. While Pat Cummins became the first player to record INR 20 Cr plus bid in IPL 2024 auction and moments later, Starc broke his record by getting the highest-ever bid, worth INR 24.75 Crore.
Here, in this article we will have a look at how much the Aussie speedster, Starc would earn for each game in IPL 2024 and more.
Mitchell Starc in IPL 2024:
- Total Price - INR 24.75 Cr

- Per Over - INR 1.767/4 = INR 44.196 Lakh
- Per ball - INR 44.196/6 = INR 7.366 Lakh
Starc will be getting INR 1.76 Crore for playing a match in IPL 2024 (assuming he will play 14 games).
Mitchell Starc was last seen playing in IPL 2015 for RCB. Starc has played two IPL seasons for RCB in 2014 & 2015, where he managed to pick a total of 34 wickets.
Starc played a vital role for Australia's successful campaign in 2023 World Cup. Both World Cup winners, Cummins and Starc got an unimaginable bid in the IPL 2024 auction.
Starc was part of Australian team which,
- won WTC Championship 2023 Finals against India
- retained the Ashes trophy on England soil
- won 2023 ODI World Cup Finals against India
Starc consecutively missed out on playing 8 IPL seasons from 2016-2023 due to his national commitment. Hence fans and audiences will be very eager to see him play on field in the purple jersey for KKR in IPL 2024.
