Sports Desk: Bangladeshi fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman has returned to the IPL after 2 years. This time his address was changed. New address Rajasthan Royals. The base price of the Bangladeshi cutter master was Rs 61 crore. Rajasthan Royals bought him at this price. Mustafiz played his first IPL for Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2016. He won the title for the team by showing great skill of service.

He was the highest wicket-taker in the IPL with 18 wickets in 17 matches. The next year, however, the Sunrisers did not give him a chance to play. After failing in one match, the franchise put him down. The next season, the Mumbai Indians fielded Mustafiz. The Phiz took 6 wickets in 6 matches. However, Mustafiz could not play in IPL in 2019 and 2020 due to the ban imposed by BCB. This time Phiz took part in the auction again in the permission fair. And the address is in Rajasthan Royals. Another Bangladeshi star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has returned to his old home.

Kolkata Knight Riders have recruited him again for this year's IPL. He is joining KKR for Rs 3.2 crore. Proteas all-rounder Chris Morris has been sold at the highest price ever in the ongoing auction. Rajasthan bought him for 16 crore 25 lakh rupees. Which is a record in the history of IPL. Earlier, in 2015, Delhi bought former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh for a maximum of Rs 16 crore. Maurice overtook him. Aussie star Glenn Maxwell's price has also gone up. Maxwell joins Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 14.25 crore. Stars like Jason Roy, Alex Hales, Aaron Finch, Alex Carey, Sam Billings, Evin Lewis remain unsold in this year's auction.
