England all-rounder Sam Curran on Friday became the most expensive player in the history of IPL auctions after fetching a whopping Rs 18.5 crore bid from Punjab Kings here. An intense bidding followed for Curran with Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Rajasthan Royals, Chennai Super Kings, Lucknow Super Giants and Punjab Kings raising their paddles frenetically to secure the services of T20 World Cup player-of-the tournament. In the end, it was Punkab Kings that broke the bank to get Curran, who drew highest-ever bid that bettered the previous best buy of Rs 16.25 crore that Rajasthan Royals had shelled out to grab South African all-rounder Chris Morris in 2021. #SamCurran #IPL2023Auction #IPLAuction

Each time #AjinkyaRahane hit the turf last year, he was been viewed with a microscopic lens. In his last 15 Tests, Rahane scored just 547 runs in 27 innings.

The #Mumbai stalwart is now back in a familiar setting, with his #RanjiTrophy teammates, in a quest to get his mojo back. In a candid interview with mid-day, Ajinkya Rahane opens up about his lean phase, the intense scrutiny on him, how he plans to bounce back and why Test captaincy remains special for him.
