New Delhi: In IPL 2022, fast bowler Harshal Patel will be seen playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). He has been included in the RCB after the mega auction of IPL 2022 by giving Rs 10.75 crore to their team. To buy him, the contest between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and RCB was seen. But in the end, the contest was finally won by Bangalore.

Let me tell you that Harshal Patel was a part of RCB earlier also. But after IPL  2021, Bangalore released him. Now Bangalore has taken him by paying more than five times the amount. In 2021, Harshal used to get Rs 2 crore. He was the highest wicket-taker of the previous season. At the same time, Team India's star spinner Ravichandran Ashwin will be seen playing for Rajasthan Royals (RR) team in IPL 2022. In the IPL 2022 mega auction, he was taken by Rajasthan for Rs 5 crore. R Ashwin was included in the set of marquee players. His base price was Rs 2 crore. Ashwin saw a tough contest at Delhi Capitals (DC) and RR. But in the end, the Royals brought him to their squad.

At the same time, Team India's opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan got off to a great start to the 2022 mega auction by Punjab Kings Rs 8.25 crore. Dhawan first saw a fierce bidding war between Delhi and Rajasthan, but later Punjab Kings also made an entry in the match and conquered Delhi.
