Day 1 of the IPL Auction 2025 flooded with lots of money as Lucknow Super Giants broke the record after buying Rishabh Pant for 27 Crore to make him the most expensive player in IPL history.
Some other top bids were Shreyas Iyer going to Punjab Kings for 26.75 Crore, and one of the most surprising buys was Venkatesh Iyer being brought back by Kolkata Knight Riders for 23.75 Crore. This clearly shows that Kolkata Knight Riders are the team that trusts their player, who helped them to win the tournament, and they are always going to be with them if they perform for the team that Iyer did in the last season.
The steal deal was Maxwell being brought by Punjab Kings for just 4.2 Crore and also Kl Rahul being brought for only 14 crore compared to the other two, Iyer and Pant, being brought by Delhi cheaply.

The Mumbai Indians only brought in one capped player and three uncapped players. It was surprising that Naman Dhir was the highest-paid uncapped buy for them, at about 5.25 crore. However, he is still one of the promising players who did not have a great past record. Maybe the scout noticed something in him.
