Uttar Pradesh batsman Sameer Rizvi was signed by Chennai Super Kings for Rs 8.4 crore during the IPL 2024 auction on Tuesday. His base price was Rs 20 lakh.

CSK and Gujarat Titans were engaged in a bidding war before Delhi Capitals came on board. GT pulled out with Rs 7.6 crore when DC decided to mix things up. But CSK had the last laugh.

Rizvi came into limelight after the recent UP T20 League where he scored 455 runs in nine innings, including two hundreds, for the Kanpur Superstars.

The 20-year-old also gave a glimpse of his big-hitting potential in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy earlier this season. Rizvi hit 18 sixes and hit one in every eleven balls he faced.

Rizvi has played eleven T20 matches so far and scored 295 runs at an impressive average of 49.16.

The right-handed batsman also put in some solid performances in the Men’s Under-23 State A tournament, where he scored two fifties and two hundreds, including a 50-ball 84 in the final to help Uttar Pradesh to victory. Rizvi also hit the most sixes (37) in the tournament.
