The team's biggest buy came nearly at the close of the day when they purchased uncapped India pacer Avesh Khan for a whopping sum of Rs 10 crore and snapped up the services of the young right-arm pacer from Madhya Pradesh. Avesh Khan, who was the second-highest wicket-taker in IPL 2021 while playing for Delhi Capitals, became the most expensive uncapped player in IPL's history.

Holder - the West Indies all-rounder - became the biggest capped player for the franchise and he was followed by India all-rounder Krunal Pandya.
