Tim David, Singapore's most famous cricketer, might be the IPL's (and Australia's) next star

The Singapore-born, Australia-raised batter and handy offspinner, who had forged his big-hitting reputation and prowess on the T20 franchise merry-go-round and in Associate cricket, found himself the object of a three-way bidding war between Rajasthan Royals, Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians. It ended with Mumbai landing David, who had scored one run in his sole IPL match as a replacement player for Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2021, for a whopping Rs 8.25 crore ($1.1m) - 20 times his base price. That fetched David the unlikely distinction of being the most expensive Australian at the auction.
