Jofra Archer sold for £1.2m in IPL auction after tug-of-war with England

The Telegraph  

The tug of war over Jofra Archer’s involvement in next year’s IPL has ended with him being picked up by Rajasthan Royals for £1.2m in an auction of unprecedented excess that saw India’s Rishabh Pant bought for a record figure of near £2.52m. Archer was prepared to miss this season to prioritise his long-awaited return to Test cricket – a format he has not played since early 2021 – but new IPL rules meant that if he skipped 2025, he would be banned from the 2026 and 2027 editions, too. Iyer had captained Kolkata Knight Riders to their third IPL title this year, but was released, leading to a punchy bidding war, only for Pant, the brilliant wicketkeeper-batsman, to top that figure. The record for the highest bid was previously held by Mitchell Starc, who saw a significant drop in his value, as he was picked up by Delhi Capitals, but his Australia team-mate Josh Hazlewood enjoyed a big payday at RCB, as did New Zealand’s Trent Boult at Mumbai Indians.
