Mitchell Starc’s wife reacts to record-breaking Rs 24.75 cr deal in IPL Auction 2024

Australia Women team captain Alyssa Healy on Wednesday described husband Mitchell Starc’s groundbreaking deal in the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL) Auction as an “incredible moment” and a “fantastic day.”

Healy said Starc becoming the most expensive player in the history of the cash-rich league at Rs 24.75 crore was justified due to the hard work he has



put in and for giving preference to the country over IPL money.

Starc was picked by Kolkata Knight Riders for a record-breaking bid of Rs 24.75 crore on Tuesday. He broke the record set a few minutes before by his World Cup-winning captain Pat Cummins, who became the first player to breach the Rs 20 crore mark when he was picked by Sunrisers Hyderabad for Rs 20.50 crore.
