IPL 2024 Auction: IPL veteran Harshal Patel goes to Punjab Kings for 11.75 crore

Harshal is an experienced customer in IPL, having taken 111 wickets in 91 matches in the tournament since making his debut in 2012

Harshal Patel joins Punjab Kings for a price of 11.75 crore. After an intense bidding war between Gujarat Titans and the Punjab Kings, the veteran pacer finally joins the latter. Harshal Patel was one of the players released by Royal Challengers Bangalore ahead of the IPL 2024 auction.

Harshal is an experienced customer in IPL, having played 91 matches in the tournament since making his debut in 2012. The fast-bowler has taken 111 wickets across his long IPL career.

In spite of his long career in IPL, 2023 has not been a good year for Harshal in terms of playing for the national team. He has featured only one for Team India in T20Is this year, in a match vs Sri Lanka in January at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. He picked up two wickets in the match. However, his expensive economy rate of over 10 runs proved to be a deterring factor in his selection in the Indian team in T20I fixtures since then.
