though siddharth

For the last two years, Tamil Nadu’s tall left-arm spinner Siddharth Manimaran wasn’t a part of the Indian Premier League (IPL) after being a member of Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals camps in 2020 and 2021 seasons respectively.

But the IPL Auction at Dubai last month marked a change for Siddharth, who entered the fray with a base price of INR 20 lakhs. He was picked by Lucknow Super Giants for INR 2.4 crore, staving off a challenge from the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
