2. Azmatullah Omarzai
Azmatullah Omarzai was expected to go very high, as he was one of the best all-rounders present in the auction. He was one of the breakthrough players in the ODI WC 2023. With a shortage in the team balance, teams were expected to go behind him. But the presence of the impact rule might have hampered his eventual price. No side except GT targeted him. GT was sure to target him, as he was almost a like-to-like replacement of Hardik Pandya. Omarzai was bought at a price of just INR 50 lakhs, which is not just a steal, but a bargain.
