Tamil Nadu’s Varun Chakravarthy, unheralded architect-turned-cricketer, joined Jayadev Unadkat as the most expensive buy on Tuesday as both fetched sensational bids of Rs 8.4 crore.

Unadkat, who was the most expensive Indian player in the previous auction, retained that tag this time around as well with Royals breaking the bank once again, albeit for Rs 3.1 crore lesser.

For Varun, it was 42 times his base price.

At the fag end of the auction, veteran Yuvraj Singh finally found a buyer at the IPL players’ auction that had an unmissable Caribbean flavour to it.

Varun, with a base price of Rs 20 lakh, went to Kings XI Punjab after a bidding war that also involved Delhi Capitals, Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals.

KXIP, who had the maximum money going into the auction, also spent big on England all-rounder Sam Curran, buying him for Rs 7.2 crore, the most for an overseas player on Tuesday.
