Stokes, who has never participated in the IPL before, went under the hammer for Rs 14.5 crore after an intense round of bidding between the Mumbai Indians and Delhi Daredevils. But it was the Rising Pune Supergiants who finally got him for a record-breaking price.

Last year’s highest bid was Rs 9.5 crore for Shane Watson, who was bought over by the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
