    Almost a month in the past, Chris Morris, a participant who can contribute to each the departments, was proven the exit door by Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) because the franchise launched its record of retained and launched gamers. 

    Even Morris in his wildest desires should not have considered turning into a sizzling property, breaking data and turning into a million-dollar child within the IPL 2021 Auction in Chennai. This wasn’t the primary occasion of Morris forcing IPL franchises to interrupt their financial institution. In 2018, Morris went for INR 11 crore earlier than the Bangalore outfit grabbed him for INR 10 crore in 2020. He hit the jackpot once more in 2021, raging a bidding conflict between franchises earlier than Rajasthan Royals snapped him up for a staggering INR 16 crore, sufficient to boost a couple of eyebrows. 

    In an in any other case insipid season for RCB within the UAE, Morris managed to select up 11 wickets in 9 video games at an economic system of 6.63. Morris’ means to bowl in demise overs alongside Jofra Archer and supply very important cameos with the bat labored in his favour and Royals splurged INR 16.25 crore on him. 

    Rajasthan Royals’ Director of Cricket, Kumar Sangakkara, tried to elucidate the group’s determination to go for Morris by saying, “We’re also glad to get Chris Morris with us simply for what he brings to the side, both with the bat and ball. With the ball especially, his numbers across the IPLs are really good and his ability to finish games with the bat down the order is useful.”

    “We also have AJ (Andrew) Tye, Mustifizur (Rehman) and then we have young Indian quicks to support that, so it gives us a few more combinations that we can play and in that he (Morris) was quite crucial,” Sangakkara additional mentioned on the Royals’ rationale behind choosing Morris.

    Shelling out money on gamers in IPL auctions is nothing in need of a raffle. While some steal buys like Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya have advanced to world-class gamers, some million-dollar buys have gone down the drain. After a disappointing season and failing to justify their price ticket, a couple of gamers have confronted some critical warmth on social media. Eventually, the franchises additionally have a tendency to surrender on such gamers.

    Here are 4 such gamers:

    Yuvraj Singh (2015 – 16 Cr)

    India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh was purchased for a whopping INR 16 cr by Delhi Capitals (Delhi Daredevils then) forward of the IPL 2015. Contrary to expectations, Yuvraj was in a position to rating simply 248 runs in 14 video games at a mean of simply 19, letting followers down with a string of bland performances. 

    On the bowling entrance, he managed to seize only one wicket and was launched by the franchise forward of the subsequent season. Yuvraj was the costliest participant within the IPL public sale earlier than Morris broke his file on Thursday. 

    Pat Cummins (2020 – 15 Cr)

    Australia’s Pat Cummins, with a base worth of INR 2 crore, was bought to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for Rs. 15.5 crore within the IPL 2020. The Kolkata outfit splurged a hefty sum on Cummins because the speedster grew to become the costliest worldwide purchase within the historical past of IPL, breaking Ben Stokes’ worth of INR 14.5 crore.

    Cummins, nonetheless, didn’t dwell as much as his price ticket as he put up a lacklustre present in UAE circumstances. The costliest overseas purchase took 12 wickets in 14 matches with 4 of them coming in a single match. Many would’ve hoped for a greater efficiency from Cummins however he did not appear to be the bowler he’s on the worldwide stage. 

    Jaydev Unadkat (2018 – 11.5 Cr)

    Unadkat is without doubt one of the only a few bowlers who’ve gone for an exorbitant worth within the IPL auctions. In 2018, Unadkat was the most costly Indian purchase, fetching a mind-boggling INR 11.5 crore deal from Rajasthan Royals. Chennai Super Kings have been additionally eager about signing him earlier than the Royals snapped him up. 

    Coming into the event and delivering with a hefty price ticket is not a straightforward process. That’s what occurred with the Saurashtra pacer. Unadkat managed to select solely 11 wickets at an economic system price of 9.47. He was not even among the many Top-25 within the main wicket-takers record.

    Glenn Maxwell (2020 – 10.75 Cr)

    It’s not an uncommon sight to search out Maxwell’s title within the record of gamers who go for hundreds of thousands within the public sale. The Australian all-rounder, purchased for INR 10.75 crore by Kings XI Punjab, was dubbed as one of many largest flops within the thirteenth season of the IPL. 

    Known for his big-hitting prowess, Maxwell had a disappointing final season within the UAE the place he managed to attain simply 108 runs. He had a dismal common of 15.52 and a below-par strike price of 101.88 in 13 video games, ending his abysmal IPL 2020 marketing campaign with out hitting a single six. Maxwell’s dismal present in UAE did not hamper his worth within the IPL 2021 public sale as Royal Challengers Bangalore purchased Australian all-rounder for a whopping 14.25 crore. He additionally grew to become the second-highest abroad purchase within the historical past of the event.

    In the tip, all of it boils right down to which participant lives as much as the hype of being bought for an enormous quantity. In the earlier season, it was Maxwell and Cummins; and this 12 months, all eyes will doubtless be on Morris to justify his bewildering price ticket. 

    The 33-year-old South African, in his unnoticed stint with RCB within the UAE, had an economic system of 6.63, solely behind Josh Hazlewood (6.40) and Jofra Archer (6.55) within the record of abroad pacers. Add a little bit of batting firepower to that on Morris can emerge as a worthwhile asset for Royals, complementing Archer in demise overs and slogging alongside Ben Stokes in crunch conditions. While Morris shall be eyeing to go away an affect in Royals camp, Maxwell shall be licking his lips for yet one more IPL probability.
