This player got Rs 107500000 for bowling just three overs in IPL 2025, his name is.....
Lucknow Super Giants captain and wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant and Kolkata Knight Riders batsman Venkatesh Iyer are being criticized a lot. People are criticizing them fiercely during the IPL and even after this tournament, because these players got huge amounts from IPL teams, but their performance was very poor. If you look, you will forget the performance of Rishabh Pant and Venkatesh Iyer, because there is also a player who has got huge amount for bowling just a few overs.
In fact, Rishabh Pant became the most expensive player of IPL, who got crores of rupees from Lucknow Super Giants. At the same time, Venkatesh Iyer was among the players sold at the highest price in the history of this league. We all saw how bad the performance of both of them was. Pant scored less runs than expected throughout the season and Venkatesh Iyer could also score very limited runs. However, there is one bowler who got crores of rupees for bowling just a few overs.
Actually, this bowler is none other than T Natarajan, who was bought by Delhi Capitals in the IPL mega auction for Rs107500000, but this bowler got a chance to play in only two matches. In one of these matches, bowling was not required because the match was washed out due to rain.
He got to bowl in one match, in which he bowled only a few overs out of his quota of overs and conceded a lot of runs. He did not get any wicket either. In this way, this bowler proved to be the most expensive for Delhi Capitals.
T Natarajan's performance was completely opposite to expectations. The expectations with which Delhi Capitals had spent such a huge amount were not fulfilled at all, which raised questions on the team's strategy and selection process.
However, the IPL rules state that the percentage of matches you play in the league phase is the percentage of money you get.

Bengaluru stampede: How further disaster was thwarted on top tiers of Chinnaswamy Stadium
1 2 Bengaluru: While pain, anguish and trauma unfolded outside M Chinnaswamy Stadium Wednesday, a potential disaster was averted by the skin of the teeth inside the stadium — thanks to the swift response of alert private security personnel and police officers. By 5pm on that fateful day, as it became clear certain stands, particularly Stand 13, were overcrowded, D Bhaskar, the managing director of Supreme Care Services, a private security agency deployed by event partner DNA, could sense trouble. "Stand 13 looked dangerous. People were jumping from the upper tier to the lower level to get a better view," Bhaskar recalled. "Some even used pillars and fences to climb down. It was a crowd unlike what we usually see during IPL matches — much more aggressive and unruly." Bhaskar, drawing on his army training and two years' experience of handling RCB match security, read the situation fast enough to realise it was spiralling out of control. "Several stands were operating at over 120% capacity. Those spectators who stood up were blocking the views of those behind, which led to pushing and jostling," he said. "I feared people could fall off the upper stands straight to the ground." Bhaskar immediately approached a senior police officer at the venue. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Obtén audífonos premium sin pagar absolutamente nada Top Audifonos Undo "I must thank him — he acted without any delay.

"We told the crowd that they were under surveillance and strict action would be taken against any unruly conduct, which instilled some fear and helped calm the situation."

KSCA officials quit hours after HC shield from arrest
Karnataka State Cricket Association's (KSCA) secretary A Shankar and treasurer ES Jairam have resigned from their posts, owing moral responsibility for the tragic stampede at Chinnaswamy Cricket Stadium here on Wednesday, hours after the Karnataka High Court granted them protection from police arrests. In a letter to KSCA president Raghuram Bhat, they said they wished to own moral responsibility though their role was very limited. The stampede and congestion near the stadium led to the death of 11 cricket fans and injuries to scores of others. The resignations followed the state government launching a crackdown on the agencies involved in organising the felicitation events at the Chinnaswamy stadium after Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) won the Indian Premier League (IPL) title for the first time. On Thursday, chief minister Siddaramaiah ordered the arrest of senior executives of RCB, KSCA and event manager DNA Entertainment Network. Shankar and Jairam, along with Bhat, moved the High Court on Friday after the police charged the three organisations with culpable homicide not amounting to murder and other sections under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. In their petition, the KSCA office bearers said the association was only a governing body of cricket in Karnataka with affiliation to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). It has nothing to do with IPL events and Wednesday's celebrations were organized by RCB franchise and managed by its vendor DNA Entertainment Network, they argued. KSCA's role was limited to making the stadium and its infrastructure available to RCB and DNA. The police, the petitioners alleged, registered the FIR against them under intense pressure and compelling circumstances without any preliminary enquiry.
