Krishnappa Gautam has overtaken Mumbai Indians’ Krunal Pandya in the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). He is one of the most expensive Indian players in IPL history. Gautam was bought by Chennai Super Kings (CSK) for Rs 9.25 crore. When Gautam made a bid, water came into his parents’ eyes, and Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya knocked on their door and welcomed them and asked for a party.

All-rounder Gautam has never played an international match. In this way they are the most unsold players. He has since left Krunal Pandya’s 2018 record which was bought by Mumbai Indians for Rs 8.8 crore. Gautam, who joined the India squad for the series against England, said: ‘It was tense. I was very fidgety while watching TV. He said, ‘I reached Ahmedabad and I opened the TV saying my name has come. The emotions varied from minute to minute. Then Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya knocked on my door and asked me to give them a hug and party.

Gautam’s original price was Rs 20 lakh. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad bid, while Chennai Super Kings (CSK) later joined. The 32-year-old Karnataka all-rounder has no special record in the IPL. He has played 24 matches in three innings since 2018 and has taken 13 wickets, scoring 186 runs. He played for Rajasthan Royals in 2018 and 2019 when he was part of Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings) in 2020, for which he had the opportunity to play only two matches.
