Highlights From The Auction 

During the IPL 2025 mega auction, the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) made headlines by acquiring Rishabh Pant for a record ₹27 crore, making him the most expensive player in IPL history. Sanjiv Goenka, owner of the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), emphasized that their ₹27 crore bid for Rishabh Pant during the IPL 2025 mega auction was not driven by ego, but rather by the value Pant brings to the team. This purchase made him the most expensive player in IPL history, surpassing Shreyas Iyer’s ₹26.75 crore and Venkatesh Iyer’s ₹23.75 crore bids. LSG also acquired 19 players in total, including notable names like David Miller and Mitchell Marsh, and with Pant joining, he is expected to lead the team in the upcoming season.

  3.
