Chris Morris is now going to be the highest open-market valued player in IPL history.
A guy who averages fewer than 10 runs per match with the bat and goes at close to 8 runs per over with the ball in his T20 career. #IPLAuction

Chris Morris base price of 75lakh. Goes to Rajasthan Royals for 16.25cr. He has now received the highest ever bid for a foreigner. And highest ever bid in auction. Goes past Pat Cummins who got 15.5cr last year from KKR. Also goes past Yuvraj Singh 16cr #IPLAuction2021

Chris Morris for this 16.25 crores tells you the price tag is dictated not by talent but what and who are available. Had it been a full auction he wouldn’t fetch half of this. @IPL #IPL2021Auction
