Mumbai Indians (MI) pacer Jasprit Bumrah dropped a cryptic tweet during the first day of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2022) mega-auction. His tweet came when the franchises were paying hefty amounts to bowlers.
Deepak Chahar fetched a huge price of INR 14 crore by Chennai Super Kings (CSK), as he became the second-most expensive player on the first day of the auction. Prasidh Krishna, Lockie Ferguson and Avesh Khan bagged INR 10 crores each, going to Rajasthan Royals (RR), Gujarat Titans (GT) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG).
