Ishan Kishan was the most expensive buy of the 2022 player auction. He was not named among MI's retained players but the five-time champions bought him back for a staggering Rs 15.25 crore.
Ishan Kishan started off well with back-to-back half-centuries. He hit an unbeaten 81 against DC and then followed that up with a 54 against Rajasthan Royals. However, Kishan has since made scores of 14, 26, 3 and 13. In 7 matches so far in IPL 2022, Ishan Kishan has scored only 191 runs, 135 of which came in the first two matches.
