Mega Auction War Room: Rishabh Pant Becomes “Most Expensive” Player, Sold for ₹33 Crore to PBKS

 Rishabh Pant Sets Auction Record: Sold to PBKS for ₹33 Cr in Mega War Room Battle.

IPL Auction: Rishabh Pant, the former captain of DC, is expected to be the most expensive player in IPL history, according to numerous experts.

According to almost all IPL mock auctions, Rishabh Pant will fetch the highest price at the 2025 IPL Auction. The Indian keeper-batter was first purchased for an incredible 18.75 Cr in the KKR mock auction, and then he moved to PBKS for 20.5 Cr at R Ashwin's IPL simulated auction.

Rishabh Pant Most Expensive Once Again, Goes to PBKS

Rishabh Pant shattered all previous records at JioCinema's "Mega Auction War Room" by selling PBKS for an incredible 33 Cr. Eoin Morgan, representing "Team Punjab," did not hesitate to increase his bid for the extremely gifted Pant. Naturally, each team's remaining money was identical to that of the actual teams. To put it briefly, PBKS spent 33 Cr instead of 110.5 Cr on Pant.

Everyone needs to be reminded that Pant is one of the most sought-after IPL players and will be considered by every team. He was not retained by DC at the October 31 IPL Retentions. He was placed into the IPL Auction in spite of his outstanding performances for the squad. PBKS will now be the leading team to sign him, followed by CSK and even KKR.

Returning to the "Mega Auction War Room," PBKS moved on to acquire players like Jos Buttler and used an RTM for bowler Arshdeep Singh in addition to Rishabh Pant.

When it comes to Rishabh Pant's IPL record, it is unmatched. He has amassed 3284 runs with a strike rate of 148.93 and an average of 35.31 in 111 games. Aside from that, he scored 446 runs at an average of 40 in 13 games last year while recovering from a potentially fatal injury.
