**MUMBAI, INDIA – November 24, 2024** – English cricketer Harry Brook will return to the Indian Premier League (IPL) after being acquired by the Delhi Capitals for a significant INR 6.25 crore (approximately $760,000 USD) in the 2025 mega auction. Brook, who initially registered himself at a base price of INR 2 crore, saw a bidding war that ultimately ended with the Delhi Capitals securing his services. The Chennai Super Kings were also in contention before withdrawing their bid.

Brook’s IPL career began with the Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2023, where he scored 190 runs in 11 matches, including a century. He was subsequently released by Hyderabad and signed by the Delhi Capitals for the 2024 season, but withdrew due to a family bereavement. His impressive talent and high potential have made him a sought-after player, despite his brief and interrupted previous IPL stint. The young batsman is considered one of the world’s best emerging talents, making his return to the league highly anticipated by fans.
