Steve Smith
Star Australian batsman Steve Smith is among the top players who went unsold. Smith can provide stability which most IPL teams need during the matches. With Virat Kohli and David Warner being the top players in the Indian Premier League, Smith going unsold is a bit of a surprise
Josh Hazlewood
Australia's speedster Josh Hazlewood is the second on the list of unsold players. With his bowling partners, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins being acquired by franchises for over 20 crores, Hazlewood not finding a buyer is a huge blow
Rassie van der Dussen
Rassie van der Dussen has featured in 43 T20I matches for South Africa in which he has registered 1,071 runs. So far, Dussen played only three matches in the IPL and has scored just 22 runs. Despite being a consistent performer for the Proteas in the ICC World Cup 2023, he did not find a buyer in the IPL 2024 auction
Karun Nair
India's Karun Nair comes fourth on the list of unsold players at IPL 2024 auction. Nair has played 76 IPL matches and has smashed 1,496 runs
Kyle Jamieson
Speedster Kyle Jamieson who has played 13 T20I matches for New Zealand has bagged just 10 wickets. The Kiwi pacer was bought by Royal Challengers Bangalore in the year 2021 for Rs. 15 crore. Despite having a height advantage, Jamieson going unsold at the auction does come as a surprise
