IPL Auction 2025: Shreyas Iyer Shatters Records to Become IPL’s 2nd Most Expensive Player Ever

In a historic turn of events at the IPL Auction 2025, Shreyas Iyer became the second most expensive player in IPL history, securing a massive ₹26.75 crore deal with Punjab Kings.

The bidding war between KKR, Delhi Capitals, and Punjab Kings saw Iyer's price soar past the previous record held by Mitchell Starc.

The 29-year-old, who led Kolkata Knight Riders to their third IPL title, made a sensational comeback after missing IPL 2023 due to injury.

His remarkable form in domestic cricket, including three Syed Mushtaq Ali hundreds, further fueled the bidding frenzy.

With 3,127 IPL runs and strong leadership credentials, Iyer's acquisition marks a milestone in IPL history as one of the most sought-after players of the season.
