Let’s examine the performances of the five most expensive players in the current league after the first five weeks of IPL 2024.
Franchises spent a significant amount of money during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 auction in Dubai to get the services of certain famous players who were playing brilliantly either before or during the business event. With INR 31.35 crore and 30.80 crore, respectively, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) were the teams with the biggest spending. Many people took notice when the reigning champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK) released a sizeable amount of INR 30.40 crore from their bank account.
After five weeks of the IPL 2024, fans of cricket are curious about the costly players’ current performance. Let’s continue this discussion by examining the performances of the five most expensive players in the current competition.
The following is an analysis of the five most expensive players in the 2024 Indian Premier League:
5 . Joseph Alzarri
Alzarri Joseph, a West Indies pacer, was sold to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) for an incredible INR 11.50 crore. He was the seventh most expensive player at the business spectacular with this sum. After the auction, RCB was met with anger from their supporters for paying an exorbitant amount for the Caribbean player, who, after the 2019 season of the lucrative league, made no impression on the competition. The player is 27 years old.
When it comes to Alzarri’s bowling statistics in the current league, after three outings, the pacer has only claimed one wicket. The lanky pacer was given the responsibility of strengthening the Royal Challengers’ fast-bowling unit in the first three games, but RCB hasn’t included him in their playing XI following a humbling seven-wicket loss to Kolkata in Bengaluru.
