The Indian pacer Jaydev Unadkat created a buzz on the second day of Indian Premier League mega auction by becoming the most expensive Indian player so far. Unadkat was brought by Rajasthan Royals for Rs. 11.50 crore.

The costliest Indian player in the #IPLAuction is not KL Rahul, not Karun Nair, not Rahane, not Krunal Pandya, not R.Ashwin. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Jaydev Unadkat, sold to RR for a small matter of 11.5C. Batshit crazy bidding!! #IPLAuction

Rajasthan Royals is back in IPL after the suspension of two years. Before RR brought Jaydev, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) were in a bidding war for the player.

Earlier, on the first day of the auction, Manish Pandey and Lokesh Rahul were the most expensive Indians as they were sold for identical price of Rs 11 crore.

Pandey was bought by Sunrisers Hyderabad while Punjab secured Rahul’s services.

England all-rounder Ben Stokes became the most expensive player at the IPL auction for the second year running when he was taken by Rajasthan for Rs 12.5 crore.

Surprisingly, Unadkat was more expensive than even star New Zealand fast bowler Trent Boult who was bought by Delhi Daredevils for a mere Rs 2.2 crore.
