    IPL Auction: I Would Like To See Him Play As Opener For KKR, Says Anil Kumble On Cameron Green

    By IANS News December 16, 2025 • 17:54 PM View: 353
    Kolkata Knight Riders: Former India cricketer Anil Kumble wants Cameron Green to play as an opener for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) after he emerged as the most expensive overseas buy at the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 mini-auction so far, and the third most expensive purchase in the history of the tournament.

    Green made his IPL debut in the 2023 season after the Mumbai Indians (MI) bought him for Rs 17.5 crore. Notably, at the time, he became the second-most expensive overseas player in IPL auction history and the most expensive Australian player.

    Most recently, he played in IPL 2024 for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) after being traded in from MI. In 12 innings, he made 255 runs at a strike rate of 143.25 and picked up 10 wickets in 13 matches with the ball at an economy of 8.61.
