7 Most Valuable Buys in IPL Auction 2023

405 Players were up for sale, but only 87 slots were left to be filled in the 10 teams that took part in IPL Auction 2023. At last, 80 players were bought in the auction in which the English cricketers were the ones who took home large amounts of money. Sam Curran turned out to be the most expensive player in the IPL auctions of all time. Cameron Green, the Aussie all-rounder on the rise, surprised everyone by getting a larger amount than Ben Stokes in the IPL 2023 Auction. On the other hand, Mukesh Kumar, an Indian uncapped player, fetched Rs 5.25 Crore in the auction. However, the most expensive buys cannot be the most valuable buys as well. Here we have listed the 7 most valuable buys in the IPL Auction 2023, which may prove to be the game changers in the upcoming tournament. 

1- Cameron Green

Sold at a whopping Rs 17.5 Crore to the Mumbai Indians in IPL 2023 Auction, Cameron Green is a complete all-rounder who can bat explosively and bowl with a pace that exceeds 140 km/ph. He is going to be a serious player to watch out for in this year’s IPL. Green was brilliant in the recently concluded T20 series against India, in which he was given a chance to open the inning for the Aussies. If utilized properly, he will be the most valuable buy in IPL Auction 2023. 

2- Ben Stokes

With MS Dhoni reaching the zenith of his career and preparing for probably the one last hurrah with Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2023, the Yellow Army needed a player who could become the next leader of their team. Stokes can fulfil that purpose as he has experience leading an international side. Moreover, he is a 4D player who can contribute with his batting, bowling, fielding and leadership skills. Chennai went all out for him in the auction, and the CSK management was most definitely right with its approach. 

3- Sam Curran

Sam Curran, the English all-rounder, was bought by Punjab Kings, who spent a stupendous amount of money to get his services for their team. Curran has been excellent in the tournament, and Punjab Kings have ticked all the boxes by buying him at the IPL Auction 2023. One can say that Curran is the newer and younger version of Ben Stokes in cricket. He is undoubtedly one of the most valuable buys in the IPL Auction 2023. 

4- Phil Salt

Delhi Capitals managed to buy Phil Salt at his base price of Rs 2 Crore in the IPL Auction 2023. The English wicketkeeper batter is certainly a steal in the auction. He has impressed with his performances in recent international fixtures for England in the shortest format of the game. Mark my words; the IPL teams are going to regret not bidding for him at the IPL Auction 2023. 

5- Adam Zampa 

I was shell-shocked and surprised when Adam Zampa went unsold in the IPL Auction 2023 in the initial rounds. He was brought back in the accelerated auction, and Rajasthan Royals managed to steal him at his base price in IPL Auction 2023. Zampa can prove to be a match-winner for RR on Indian pitches. 

6- Mayank Dagar

The uncapped Indian player from Himachal Pradesh is an orthodox left-arm spinner who was a sensation in the last Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. He was brilliant in that tournament and caught the eyes of many franchises in the IPL Auction 2023. Sunrisers Hyderabad bought him in the auction, and the SRH is certainly the team which can groom a young bowler like him. Watch out for him in IPL Auction 2023. He can be a surprise package. 

7- Shams Mulani 

Another young bowler who grabbed attention with his impactful performance in SMAT is Shams Mulani, who has been bought by Mumbai Indians at the price of Rs 20 Lakhs. The uncapped Indian player has the ability to change a game with his spin bowling, which has been quite effective for him in 2022.
