Bhuvi Jumps Ships As He Joins RCB After IPL 2025 Auction
After the Sunrisers Hyderabad did not retain pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar, he entered the IPL mega auction and set a base prize of INR 2 Crore. He went under the hammer on the second day of the proceedings, and the India Pacer was a popular choice among several franchises. The two-time Purple Cap winner was being sought by the Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants.
Mumbai immediately raised the paddle, and LSG responded quickly. It was a proper bidding war for the India pacer, with IPL teams willing to pay the highest possible price for his services. MI backed out after LSG raised the bid to Rs 10 crore. The deal appeared to be done and dusted, but RCB stepped in at the last minute to acquire the seasoned pacer for Rs 10.75 crore.
