From CricArcade's IPL records, 2008 to 2008 · Sources

Dinesh Salunkhe spent a single IPL season with Rajasthan Royals, 2008: 6 matches, 33 runs, 1 wicket, and a winner's medal when Rajasthan Royals took the title.

The arrival

Dinesh Salunkhe was there from the start, in the league's first season, 2008, signed by Rajasthan Royals outside the auction.

That first season brought 6 matches, 33 runs and 1 wicket, and ended with Rajasthan Royals as champions.

In the field

The fielding record: 2 catches.

At the auction

Dinesh Salunkhe went under the hammer once. The price was ₹10 lakh, paid by Rajasthan Royals in 2015. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Rajasthan Royals in 2015.

Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.

The legacy

Dinesh Salunkhe made 6 IPL appearances, the last for Rajasthan Royals in 2008.
