3. Shreyas Iyer (base Price- 2 Cr INR, Selling Price- 12.25 Cr INR)
Shreyas Iyer, with an average of 31.66 and a strike rate of 123.66 in his Indian T20 League career, is one man who can stabilize the innings and keep the score board moving in the middle overs of a game.
The Delhi franchise did not retain Shreyas Iyer hoping to buy him back in the mega auction. But the Kolkata franchise looking desperately for a captaincy contender and a stable middle-order batsman fended off the competition from Delhi, Gujarat and Lucknow to secure the services of Iyer for 12.25 Cr INR, over six times his base price.
