England all-rounder Sam Curran has become the most expensive player in IPL history, having been signed by the Punjab Kings for £1.85m following his heroics in the recent T20 World Cup.
Curran was named player of the tournament after picking up 13 wickets at an average of 11.38, helping England lift the trophy and become double world champions. The 24-year-old has developed into a death specialist for his country, but is also capable of bowling in all phases of the game.
He is also a genuine all-rounder, having improved his T20 batting markedly in recent years. Having been bought for £1.85m (18.5 crore), Curran breaks former South Africa all-rounder Chris Morris' record as the most expensive IPL player ever.
