But the tables for the young English all-rounder has changed as he hardly attracted bidders at IPL 2025 Auction in Jeddah. Curran, who had base price of Rs 2 crore, was sold to Chennai Super Kings at a meagre Rs 2.40 crore. This is a pay cut of almost 87 per cent for the 26-year-old. Punjab Kings, too, did not use their Right-To-Match for Curran, who has been with the team since 2019. Curran is known for his ability to bowl in all phases of the game and provide crucial runs with the bat, making him an impactful and versatile player.Sam Curran Previous IPL Teams:Sam Curran made his Indian Premier League (IPL) debut in 2019. Kings XI Punjab bought him for Rs 7.2 crore. He made a quick impact, achieving a hat-trick against Delhi Capitals. He became one of the youngest players to accomplish this.A total of 1,574 players will participate in the IPL 2025 mega auction today and tomorrow in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The player pool consists of 1,165 Indian players and 409 overseas players, of which 320 players are capped, 1,224 are uncapped, and 30 are from Associate Nations. A total of 204 slots are available across the ten IPL franchises, with a maximum squad size of 25 players per team. Meanwhile, Chennai Super Kings, the joint-most successful IPL franchise having won five IPL titles, narrowly missed out on a playoff spot in the most disappointing way last season. However, the mega auction is chance for the Yellove Army to rebuild its core.", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.etimg.com/thumb/msid-115659356,resizemode-4,width-1200,height-900,imgsize-37116,overlay-economictimes/articleshow.jpg", "width": 1200, "height": 900 }, "author": { "@type": "Thing", "name": "ET Online" }, "publisher": { "@type": "NewsMediaOrganization", "name": "Economic Times", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.etimg.com/thumb/msid-76939477,width-600,height-60,quality-100/economictimes.jpg", "width": 600, "height": 60 } } , "isAccessibleForFree" : "https://schema.org/False", "hasPart": { "@type": "WebPageElement", "isAccessibleForFree": "https://schema.org/False", "cssSelector" : ".paywall" }, "isPartOf": { "@type": ["CreativeWork", "Product"], "name" : "Economic Times", "productID": "prime.economictimes.indiatimes.com:prime" } }</script><script type="application/ld+json"> { "@context": "https://schema.org/", "@type" : "WebPage", "name" : "Sam Curran, once most expensive player at IPL, now hardly has any takers at 2025 Auction", "speakable" : { "@type": "SpeakableSpecification", "cssSelector" : [".article_wrap h1", ".artSyn h2"] }, "url": "https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/sports/ipl-2025-auction-sam-curran-sold-to-chennai-super-kings-csk-for-rs-2-40-crore-once-most-expensive-player-at-ipl-now-hardly-has-any-takers/articleshow/115659131.cms" } </script><script type="text/javascript"> //set iframe height on load (function(){ $('#toispecials-iframe').height($(window).height()); })(); /* function scrollIframeToTop() { setTimeout(function() { $('body, html').animate({ scrollTop: $menuEl.offset().top }, 800); }, 500); } scrollIframeToTop(); */ </script><script> var countryCode = window.geoinfo && geoinfo.CountryCode; if (countryCode === "IN"){ $('.inSideInd').addClass("show"); $('.outsideInd').remove(); } else{ $('.outsideInd').addClass("show"); $('.inSideInd').remove(); } window.onload = function() { // setFont(); }; </script><div class="blocker_wrap hidden"><section class="font_mon login_blocker hidden"><div class="lb_head tac">Continue reading with one of these options:</div><div class="lb_box_cont"><div class="lb_box"><div class="lb_boxb"><div class="lb_boxh">Limited Access</div><div class="lb_boxt">Free</div><div class="lb_boxd">Login to get access to some exclusive stories<br> & personalised newsletters</div><div onclick="objPrimePaywall.cta('login')" class="lb_boxbtn">Login Now</div></div></div><div class="lb_box"><div class="lb_boxb"><div class="lb_boxh">Unlimited Access</div><div class="lb_boxt lb_pr">Starting @ Rs120/month</div><div class="lb_boxd">Get access to exclusive stories, expert opinions &<br> in-depth stock reports</div><div onclick="objPrimePaywall.cta('plan')" class="lb_boxbtn">Subscribe Now</div></div></div></div></section><div class="loader_box"><div class="spinner"><div class="loading-text">ET</div></div></div><section class="font_mon prime_paywall"><style> .articleBlockerWrap {width: 650px;background: #ffe9e2;height: 251px;display: none;margin: 2% auto 2%;box-shadow: 0 12px 20px 0 rgb(0 0 0 / 13%);} .articleBlocker {background: #ffe9e2;border: 7px solid white;padding: 28px 22px;width: 567px;margin: auto;text-align: left;position: relative;min-height: 149px;} .articleBlocker h4 {font-size: 24px;font-weight: bold;line-height: 1.27;} .articleBlocker p {font-size: 16px;margin: 15px 0;} .articleBlocker button {background: #ed193b;color: white;font-size: 16px;font-weight: 800;margin: auto;width: 215px;height: 37px;border-radius: 2px;position: absolute;animation: .18s linear infinite alternate slide;} @keyframes slide {from {left: 15px;}to {left: 30px;;}} .articleBlocker button:hover {animation-play-state: paused;cursor: pointer;} .articleBlocker img {position: absolute;right: 22px;height: 120px;bottom: 0;} </style><div data-paywall="true" data-grx-impression="Subscription Flow ET Articleshow Blocker#Scroll Blocker Impression#Blocker layer Viewed" class="articleBlockerWrap"><div class="articleBlocker"><h4>Uh-oh!
