IPL Auction 2025: Meet the most expensive uncapped player in the history of Indian Premier League

Rishabh Pant made history at the IPL Auction 2025, becoming the most expensive player in IPL auction history with a staggering ₹27 crore bid from Lucknow SuperGiants (LSG). The wicketkeeper-batter, who had been with Delhi Capitals since 2016, was released ahead of this year's auction, making him a prime target. Delhi Capitals initially exercised their Right to Match (RTM) card to retain Pant at ₹20.75 crore, but LSG raised the stakes, forcing DC to withdraw. Pant, who made a strong comeback in IPL 2024 after recovering from a life-threatening car accident, had an average season with 446 runs, but his leadership and proven IPL experience made him a valuable asset. The record-breaking signing of Pant follows his illustrious career and marks a new chapter for LSG as they bolster their squad for IPL 2025 #IPL #IPL2025 #RishabhPant #RishabhPantIPL #RishabhPantLSG #RishabhPantIPLAuction #IPL2025 #RishabhPant #LSG #IPLauction #IPLHistory #RecordBreakingBid #IPLmegaauction #LucknowSuperGiants #DelhiCapitals #IPL #Pant27Crore #IPL2025Auction #CricketNews #BiddingWar #IPLstar ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.336~GR.344~
