The SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) purchased England batsman Harry Brook for a staggering Rs 13.25 crore on Friday at the IPL 2023 Auction in Kochi. SRH and the Rajasthan Royals waged a bidding war for Brook’s services., even though the Illustrious Challengers Bangalore (RCB) were also competing. Stream, whose base price was Rs. 1.5 crore, in his brief however fruitful worldwide profession hitherto, has arisen as a commonly recognized name thanks to his striking stroke play.
With 468 runs at an average of 93.60, including three centuries, one half-century, and his highest score of 153, he recently became Pakistan’s most prolific run scorer in the Test series. He was also named “Man of the Series” for his outstanding performance in the longer format.
In addition, Brook received the title of “Man of the Series” for his outstanding performance in the seven-match T20I series against Asian powerhouses that was part of the tour in September and October. He pitched seven innings and scored 238 runs at a normal rate of 79.33, with the highest score being 81* in the seventh.
In the past, Gujarat Titans (GT) purchased New Zealand player Kane Williamson for his base salary of Rs 2 crores.
Williamson’s performance with SRH in the IPL 2022 was subpar. In 13 matches, he only scored 216 runs at an average of 19.64. Only one fifty was produced by his bat. His strike rate of 93.51 was also extremely low. He was let go by the franchise before the IPL 2023 auction in November.
This year, Williamson played 13 T20Is and scored 443 runs, including three fifties, at an average of 36.91. His strike rate, however, has been slightly below T20I standards, at 118.76.
