The one who was once compared to Brian Lara, Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar, today did not find any buyer in the mega auction even at the base price of Rs 75 lakh. Yes, we are talking about 25 year old Prithvi Shaw.
Prithvi Shaw's current form is very bad and he is not able to score runs even in domestic tournaments. He has flopped badly in the last three IPL seasons (283 runs, 106 runs and 198 runs) due to which he has now faced huge losses. No team has bought him in the mega auction.
4. Umesh Yadav
Indian fast bowler Umesh Yadav, the merchant of speed, is also included in this list. Last season, Gujarat Titans made Umesh Yadav a part of their team for Rs 5.80 crore, this was the best contract of his IPL career. But apart from this, he has not found any buyer in the mega auction even at the base price of Rs 2 crore.
Apart from Gujarat Titans, Umesh has also been a part of teams like Kolkata Knight Riders, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Delhi Capitals in IPL, but they too did not show any interest in this Indian fast bowler. It is noteworthy that in IPL, Umesh has 144 wickets in his name in 148 matches with an economy of 8.45.
3. Kane Williamson
New Zealand's legendary batsman Kane Williamson has also not found any buyer in the mega auction of IPL 2025. Let us tell you that there was a time when Sunrisers Hyderabad had opened its coffers for Kane Williams and spent Rs 14 crores on him.
However, times have changed now. Till last year, Kane was with Gujarat Titans at a base price of Rs 2 crore, but this time they too have not made a bid for Kane. This Kiwi player has 2128 runs in his name in 79 IPL matches at an average of around 35.
2. Shardul Thakur
No one would have probably thought that Lord Shardul Thakur would not find any buyer in the mega auction to be held in Jeddah and he would remain unsold at his base price of Rs 2 crore. Although this has happened.
Shardul Thakur, who was a part of teams like Chennai Super Kings, Kolkata Knight Riders, Delhi Capitals, Rising Pune Supergiants, and Punjab Kings in the IPL, remained unsold in the IPL 2025 mega auction. He has been a part of three teams in the last three seasons. In the year 2024, Super Kings included him in their team for Rs 4 crore. This fast bowler, who took 94 wickets in 95 IPLs, has remained unsold.
1. David Warner
Great Australian batsman David Warner, who won the Orange Cap thrice in IPL and led Sunrisers Hyderabad to the IPL trophy as captain, is also included in this list and he is also heartbroken.
Actually, David Warner has also not found any buyer for IPL 2025. He had kept his base price at Rs 2 crore, on which not even a single bid was received. This is a big shock, because everyone is aware of David Warner's ability. He is one of the top-5 players scoring the most runs in the history of IPL. He has 6565 runs in his name in 184 IPL matches. He has scored 4 centuries and maximum 62 half centuries in this tournament. However, despite all this he has remained unsold.
