Indian Premier League (IPL) has given cricketers the platform they deserve and the players getting valuable game time, pressure matches, top class money with world class amenities. The franchises buy the best players for high amounts as well.
There have been numerous times when the IPL record for the costliest buy has been broken. While the fans are always excited to follow Live Cricket Score and follow every record related to the tournament, let’s take a look at the top 3 costliest buys in IPL history.
3) Ben Stokes (2023)
Ben Stokes had already held the record of being the costliest player in an auction when he was sold to Pune in 2017 and Rajasthan in 2018. He is the third on the list of costliest buys when he was sold to four-time winners Chennai Super Kings for a sum of INR 16.25 crore. Chris Morris, was also sold for the same figure in one of the previous auctions.
2) Cameron Green (2023)
Mumbai Indians is not known for making costly buys at the IPL auction but one has to replace someone like Keiron Pollard, they have to spend the big bucks. Cameron Green impressed everyone with his skills when he came for the T20I series last year and thus earned himself a massive IPL contract worth INR 17.5 crore.
1) Sam Curran (2023)
Sam Curran became the most expensive player in IPL history when he was bought by the Punjab Kings for INR 18.5 crore after a grueling bidding war between many teams. He was a key player for England at the T20 World Cup this year and can offer serious batting depth as well to the team. Curran hasn’t been able to repeat his performances after the World Cup which is a worrying sign for the Punjab Kings.
Wankhede Stadium is an international cricket stadium based in Mumbai, India. It is also the home ground for Mumbai Indians. Throughout all these years, this stadium has produced some memorable matches in IPL history.

SRINAGAR: The Supreme Court on Monday refused to entertain a plea against a Jammu and Kashmir government circular directing all Deputy Commissioners to remove encroachments on Union Territory land, including Roshni land and Kachharie land, by January 31, reported BarAndBench.
A bench of Justices MR Shah and BV Nagarathna was unconvinced with the argument of the petitioners that despite the Jammu & Kashmir State Land (Vesting of Ownership to Occupants) Act, 2001 (popularly known as the Roshni Act) being repealed, their ownership rights persisted.
“You tell us what right you have.. not under Roshni Act – it has been struck down! …. The Act has been repealed. Once the Act has been repealed, where is the question of savings clause?,” the Court remarked.
The bench also orally observed that if the Court were to grant relief to those continuing to occupy the land, it could have larger repercussions.
“If we protect your possession, it will affect the entire J&K encroachment! At the most we can grant you reasonable time to relocate,” the Court said.
The petitioner eventually sought to withdraw the petition and was allowed to do so by the Court.
During the previous hearing, the bench had advised the petitioners to restrict their prayers to status quo rather than a blanket stay on the circular.
“If stay (of order) granted then it will benefit land grabbers also,” Justice Shah had remarked.
In 2001, the Jammu & Kashmir government had enacted a law called the the Roshni Act for granting ownership of state land to unauthorised occupants in order to raise funds for power projects in the erstwhile State.
In October 2020, a Division Bench of Justices Gita Mittal and Rajesh Bindal of the High Court had declared the Act unconstitutional. All acts done under it as well as amendments under the Act were subsequently declared void ab initio.
The Court had also ordered a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the Roshni land scam case, stated to be the biggest ever in the history of the ertswhile State.
The Jammu & Kashmir government had then moved the High Court to review the said ruling. At the same time, appeals were also filed against the High Court judgment before the Supreme Court.
Even as several review petitions challenging the High Court judgment were pending, the Union Territory, on January 9 this year, had directed all deputy commissioners to remove encroachment on such land by January 31, 2023.
Residents were told to either demolish the structures on their own or bear the expenses for the demolition.
The Supreme Court had, earlier this week, agreed to list the urgent application seeking a stay on the circular. Justice Sanjiv Khanna had earlier recused from hearing the matter.

SRINAGAR: The WHO has said that the Covid-19 pandemic still constitutes a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), the WHO’s highest alert level.
The announcement came amid the recent increase of weekly reported deaths worldwide. After its quarterly assessment meeting on the Covid-19 pandemic on Friday, the WHO’s International Health Regulations (2005) Emergency Committee announced on Monday that Covid-19 continues to constitute a PHEIC, which has been concurred by WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
Covid-19 remains a dangerous infectious disease with the capacity to cause substantial damage to health systems, the committee said in a statement, while acknowledging that the Covid-19 pandemic may be approaching an inflection point, Xinhua news agency reported.
Although infection or vaccination may lead to higher levels of population immunity globally and limit the impact of morbidity and mortality, “there is little doubt that this virus will remain a permanently established pathogen in humans and animals for the foreseeable future,” the committee added.
It then called for long-term public health action that will prioritise the mitigation of Covid-19 impact on morbidity and mortality.
Meanwhile, the committee recommends that countries should achieve 100 per cent vaccination coverage of high-priority groups, improve reporting of SARS-CoV-2 surveillance data to the WHO, and ensure long-term availability of medical countermeasures, such as Covid-19 vaccines, diagnostics and therapeutics.

LAB, KDA hold protest in Jammu on Sunday, January 16, 2022
China is reported to have blocked access to the Indian Army at 26 patrolling points along the Line of Actual Control (LoAC) in eastern Ladakh, resulting in the denial to use huge swatches of grazing land to the local herdsmen. A Leh Police reports suggest that there are a total of 65 PPs (patrolling points) starting from Karakoram Pass to Chumur which were routinely being patrolled by the army. These points were openings towards high-altitude meadows as well. The access has been denied by the Chinese Army under the land grabbing inch by inch, which is called salami slicing, the report authored by OPS officer PD Nitya has said. The officer submitted its report to the just concluded annual conference of DGPs and IGPs held in Delhi. “Out of 65 PPs, our presence is lost in 26 PPs (i.e. PP no. 5-17, 24-32, 37), due to restrictive or no patrolling by the security forces,” the paper added. Though the government has not formally reacted to the findings, informal sources have denied the status quo. The anonymous said the herders have been restricted by the army itself.
Meanwhile, in an unlinked development, reports suggest that the MHA will resume talks with the protesting political leadership of the region seeking assurance for full statehood, and protection of the region’s identity under the Sixth Schedule and jobs. Region’s leaders have boycotted a High Power Committee that MHA constituted and protested in Ladakh and then in Jammu. Now, the regional leaders have written a joint letter to Amit Shah suggesting that to begin with, dialogue should be initiated with two representatives each of LAB and Kargil Democratic Alliance (KDA) with the provision of wider participation as it makes headway.
