IPL 2024 Auction Live Updates: Mitchell Starc In History Books! Becomes Costliest Player Ever With Rs 24.75 Crore Bid From KKR | Cricket News

IPL Auction Live: CSK on their plans ahead!

Stephen Fleming opens up on if Daryl Mitchell is a replacement for Ben Stokes: “He played just one game, so not massive shoes. Daryl is a different type of player, but his performances over the last 18-24 months have warranted this type of a price. He is an unfashionable player, often goes under the radar. With his ability to play spin he is competitive and he is also a handy bowler. In Chepauk we can slide him into a role. Just like his performances, he fits in nicely and a good buy for us.”
