From CricArcade's IPL records, 2018 to 2023 · Sources

KM Asif, a bowler, played three IPL seasons for two franchises. Two titles came along the way.

The arrival

KM Asif arrived through the auction: Chennai Super Kings paid ₹40 lakh, against a base price of ₹20 lakh.

That first season brought 2 matches and 3 wickets, and ended with Chennai Super Kings as champions.

Franchise by franchise

2018 to 2021, Chennai Super Kings. Bought at the 2018 auction for ₹40 lakh. 3 matches and 4 wickets; champions in 2018 and 2021.

2023, Rajasthan Royals. Bought at the 2023 auction for ₹30 lakh. 4 matches and 3 wickets.

2 spells with two franchises in all. The longest was with Chennai Super Kings, 2018 to 2021. 2019, 2020 and 2022 are missing from the record: seasons without an IPL appearance.

How the wickets came

With the ball, 7 wickets in 135 deliveries, at 10.27 runs an over against a league rate of 8.62 for the same seasons: 1.65 an over more expensive than the typical bowler of the time, the price of a bowler who took wickets often.

The fielding record: 1 catch.

At the auction

KM Asif went under the hammer six times, bought three times and left unsold three times. The highest price was ₹40 lakh, paid by Chennai Super Kings in 2018. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Chennai Super Kings in 2022.

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

The legacy

KM Asif made 7 IPL appearances, the last for Rajasthan Royals in 2023.
