But amidst all this, the most successful batsman in IPL history has remained unsold, due to which there has been a sensation on the internet. So let’s know about the batsman who remained unsold in the IPL 2025 auction.
This player remained unsold in IPL 2025 auction
Let us tell you that the mega auction of IPL 2025 has started from November 24 and on its first day, Australia cricket team’s legendary opener David Warner remained unsold. No team has bid on David Warner, which has created a stir on the internet. Since he is the only batsman in IPL history to have won the Orange Cap 3 times.
It is known that David Warner was a part of Delhi Capital last year. But during that time his performance was not very special. In such a situation, Delhi released him from the team and now he will not be seen playing for any team.
David Warner was a flop last season
Playing for Delhi Capitals, David Warner scored a total of 168 runs in 8 matches last season. During this, his average was 21.00. Australian legend David Warner could score only one half-century last season. His strike rate last season was also only 134.40. In such a situation, this may be the reason why he remained unsold.
However, on the second day of the IPL 2025 auction, a team can also buy him at the base price. But if we talk about his overall IPL performance, then he is the best. He is one of the few players in IPL history who has scored the most runs.
IPL record of David Warner
38-year-old David Warner has achieved the feat of scoring 6565 runs in 184 innings of 184 IPL matches at a strong average of 40.52. During this, he has scored runs at a strike rate of 139.77. A total of 4 centuries and 62 half-centuries have also come from his bat in IPL. He is the fourth highest run-scorer in IPL history.
