Green becomes most expensive overseas IPL player

Australia all-rounder Cameron Green makes IPL history as the most expensive overseas signing, purchased for 25.2 crore by Kolkata Knight Riders in 2026. The bidding war involved Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings, exceeding KKR's previous highest bid for Mitchell Starc in 2024. Green now ranks as the third most costly player in IPL history, following Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer's record-breaking deals in previous auctions.
