IPL 2022 Mega Auction: From Suresh Raina to Imran Tahir, 10 BIG NAMES who went unsold at auction

The IPL 2022 Mega Auction got over on February 13 (Sunday) and we saw many cricketers become millionaires. However, there were some shocking rejections as well. We list down below the ten big names who missed out on any deal at the auction. Take a look.  

Suresh Raina

1/10
Suresh Raina

He won matches for CSK, season after season, and was once called Mr IPL but in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction, he did not find any buyer. Raina, for the first time in IPL history, has gone without getting sold. His base price was Rs 2 crore. One of the shocking decision of the mega auctions. (Source: Twitter)

Imran Tahir

Imran Tahir

Imran Tahir was the oldest player in the mega auction at the age of 42 years. He went unsold too as franchises feel his services are no more required. Imran was with CSK for a few seasons. His base price was Rs 2 crore. (Source: Twitter)

Cheteshwar Pujara

Pujara was bought by CSK last year at the base price of Rs 50 lakh but this season no franchise put their money on him. This year too his base price was the same. His luck was not sadly. (Source: Twitter)

Marnus Labuschagne

Marnus Labuschagne

He maybe the best Test batter in Australia currently but for Labsuchagne, no franchise want to spend their money on and he is not the greatest of T20 batters. His base price of Rs 1 crore may have acted against him as well. (Source: Twitter)

Eoin Morgan

Eoin Morgan was a shocker. He led KKR to the final in IPL 2021 and in 2022, he will not feature for any IPL side. His base price was Rs 1.5 crore. His poor show with bat may have led to this. (Source: Twitter)

Amit Mishra

Amit Mishra is an IPL legend with plethora of wickets to his name. He has given services to Delhi Capitals for years but his age might be a reason why he does not feature in their or any other teams' plans. (Source: Twitter)

Adam Zampa

One of the biggest shocks from mega auction. Zampa is a top T20 bowler and is a wrist spinner who are always in demand. Yet, at Rs 2 crore as base price, Zampa found no takers. (Source: Twitter)

Shakib Al Hasan

He may be the best cricketer Bangladesh has ever produced but Shakib has failed to make an impact in IPL and this season he goes unsold. His base price was Rs 2 crore. (Source: Twitter)

Steve Smith

Steve Smith

Steve Smith has failed to make an impact in T20s and it is showing in the way franchises are treating him. His base price of Rs 2 crore seemed way higher to teams and that is why he went unsold. (Source: Twitter)
