Arshdeep Singh became the most expensive pacer at the recent IPL auction, as Punjab Kings acquired him for Rs 18 crore. Former India opener Aakash Chopra praised this move, citing Arshdeep's wicket-taking abilities as surpassing Jasprit Bumrah's in T20Is. Punjab also bought Yuzvendra Chahal for an equal amount and Shreyas Iyer for Rs 26.75 crore.
