IPL Auction 2025 Highlights, Day 2: It’s a wrap; Bhuvneshwar Kumar earns top bid on Day 2 to RCB, 13 yo Vaibhav Suryavanshi becomes a crorepati

HOT FROM THE PRESS:

Sanjay Bharadwaj recollects how he had to change his coaching style for Priyansh Arya, who was obsessed with hitting sixes from a very young age. Bharadwaj, who has coached the likes of Gautam Gambhir, Amit Mishra, Joginder Sharma and Unmukt Chand, calls him a product of the T20 era. "All my life, I have told my students to play in the V, and If I remember correctly when it came to Priyansh, I never stopped him from playing the aerial shots. Initially, I did give him dressing down but I realised that's his strength and I gave him complete freedom, and he never looked back," Bharadwaj tells The Indian Express. On Monday, the 23-year-old from Delhi, who is fresh from hitting a 43-ball 102 against Uttar Pradesh in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, bagged a Rs 3.80 crore contract by the Punjab Kings on the second day of the IPL mega auction in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Venkata Krishna B: CSK 25/25. A power hitter in the middle/lower order is missing. But overall another strong squad as usual. If the pitch turns at Chepauk, they will choke opposition at ease. If it doesn’t assist them like last season, they need a proper Plan B.

But so are DC. But KKR get one of their released players ONCE AGAIN. For Rs 40 lakh. 

Pukhraj Mann is unsold.
