IPL 2022 Mega Auction - Shreyas Iyer's Bidding War Won By KKR

By IANS News February 12, 2022 • 13:27 PM View: 1958

India batter Shreyas Iyer earned the highest bid in marquee sets of IPL Mega Auction 2022 as Kolkata Knight Riders picked him for a whopping INR 12.25 crores. It also means that Kolkata now have got a reliable middle-order bat with captaincy credentials.

As expected, there was an intense bidding war for Iyer, who captained Delhi Capitals to being runners-up in the 2020 season. Bangalore, Delhi and Lucknow jumped in early with Kolkata Knight Riders coming into the mix later and then Gujarat Titans as well. But it was Kolkata who won the bid.
