Every year at the IPL auction, the owners and team management of various franchises have invested heavily in the uncapped players. Through the years, many young uncapped players have fetched the big bucks, whether at the mini auction or the mega auction.
At the 2014 auction, the right-arm leg-spinner and left-handed batter Karn Sharma became the most expensive uncapped player when he was purchased by the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) for INR 3,75 Cr. In the 2015 auction, Shreyas Iyer, a young batter from Mumbai at the time became the most expensive uncapped player going to the then Delhi Daredevils (DD) for INR 2.6 Cr.
