IPL Auction 2023 –
Sam Curran of England who recently became the most expensive player and buyer in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL), admitted on Friday that he didn’t get much sleep on Thursday night and felt both anxious and excited about the 2023 mini-player auction of the lucrative competition.
MI, CSK, RR, LSG, and PBKS all made significant bids for Curran, who won Player of the Tournament at the Australia 2022 T20 World Cup. Nevertheless, PBKS eventually won the auction and paid a staggering Rs 18.50 crore for the England all-rounder.
“Last night, I didn’t get much sleep since I was anxious and a little thrilled about the auction. But yes, I am utterly humbled and overjoyed that I was able to achieve what I accomplished. On the Star Sports program “Cricket Live — Auction Special,” Curran stated, “I never had any aspirations to receive that.

Going back to Punjab, where I played my first season in the IPL four years ago, is obviously the best place to start for me. It, therefore, looks wonderful to be returning there, and I am looking forward to joining some English team members as well, said Curran.
Yes, I agree that it will be considerably different, but as I mentioned, I am familiar with the stadium. I am familiar with Mohali, so having familiar teammates who can assist me is certainly a slight benefit. And yes, after a wonderful world cup, I feel confident going into this competition.
It’s incredible, and I’m simply giddy with excitement. I won’t be visiting India for a few more months, but it is tremendously thrilling. It’s a great opportunity that I’m very thrilled about, as you can obviously guess. There are a lot of thoughts racing through his head, and he continued, “It’s wonderful and quite overwhelming.”
