Rishabh Pant got 27 crores, Shreyas Iyer got 26.75 crores and Venkatesh Iyer got 23.75 crores… In the IPL auction, a lot of money was showered on the players of Team India. But there are some players of this Team India who did not even get a team, let alone much money. No one bet on these players. These players also such who have great names, every child knows them. Some are explosive batsmen, some are excellent bowlers. Some are excellent wicketkeepers and all-rounders. Let us tell you about the 10 players of Team India who were not sold in the IPL auction.

Shaw went unsold

The biggest player who was not sold in the IPL auction was Prithvi Shaw. This player was a part of Delhi Capitals for a long time but his poor performance and poor fitness in the last few seasons proved fatal for him. Now no team has placed a bet on this player.

Setback for Sarfraz

Not only Shaw, but Sarfaraz Khan also did not find any buyer in IPL. Sarfaraz has not played IPL since 2021. He has scored 441 runs in 40 matches in this tournament at an average of 23.21. It is as if Sarfaraz has been stamped as a Test batsman.

Shardul Thakur went unsold.

Shardul Thakur was in CSK till last season but this time he did not find any buyer. This is the second time that Shardul, who has been playing in IPL since 2015, has not been bought by any team. Shardul did not play IPL in 2016 as well. Last season, Shardul was able to take only 5 wickets in 9 matches, due to which he did not find any buyer this year.

Umesh Yadav is out

Umesh Yadav, who played for Gujarat Titans in the IPL last year, did not find any buyer this time. Last year, Umesh took 8 wickets for Gujarat. He has 144 wickets in his IPL career but this time no team bought him. Apart from him, Navdeep Saini, Shivam Mavi, Chetan Sakaria, and Sandeep Warrior also did not find any buyer. These players have also played for Team India. All-rounder Krishnappa Gautam did not find any buyer and no one bet on wicketkeeper KS Bharat either.
