Play a single Quick Play tournament with a fixed seed and a shareable result, or commit to Squad Mode, a multi-season franchise manager career where retention prices, transfer windows and club milestones carry across years. Every squad draws on real historical rosters, from the 2008 inaugural IPL season through the newest campaigns.

From CricArcade's IPL records, 2021 to 2024 · Sources

Jhye Richardson, a bowler, played two IPL seasons for two franchises.

The arrival

Jhye Richardson arrived through the auction: Punjab Kings paid ₹14 cr, against a base price of ₹1.50 cr.

That first season brought 3 matches, 15 runs and 3 wickets at 10.64 an over.

Franchise by franchise

2021, Punjab Kings. Bought at the 2021 auction for ₹14 cr. 3 matches, 15 runs and 3 wickets.

2024, Delhi Capitals. Bought at the 2024 auction for ₹5 cr. 1 match and 2 runs.

2022 and 2023 are missing from the record: seasons without an IPL appearance.

In the field

The fielding record: 1 catch.

At the auction

Jhye Richardson went under the hammer five times, bought three times and left unsold twice. The highest price was ₹14 cr, paid by Punjab Kings in 2021, more than 9 times the base price. The market cooled over time: the last purchase, in 2024, cost ₹5 cr. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Mumbai Indians in 2023.

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

The legacy

Jhye Richardson made 4 IPL appearances, the last for Delhi Capitals in 2024.
