Kyle Jamieson
On scorecards: KA Jamieson · Right-hand bat
Kyle Jamieson, a bowler, has played three IPL seasons for three franchises.
The arrival
Kyle Jamieson arrived through the auction: Royal Challengers Bangalore paid ₹15 cr, against a base price of ₹75 lakh.
That first season brought 9 matches, 65 runs and 9 wickets at 9.44 an over. It would stay the best season of the career with the ball.
The peak
The best season was 2021, for Royal Challengers Bangalore: 9 wickets at 9.44 runs an over, while the league's bowlers went for 7.87, with best figures of 3 for 41.
Franchise by franchise
2021, Royal Challengers Bangalore. Bought at the 2021 auction for ₹15 cr. 9 matches and 9 wickets.
2025, Punjab Kings. Arrived outside the auction. 4 matches and 5 wickets.
2026, Delhi Capitals. Bought at the 2026 auction for ₹2 cr. 2 matches and 2 wickets.
2022, 2023 and 2024 are missing from the record: seasons without an IPL appearance.
How the wickets came
With the ball, 16 wickets in 303 deliveries, at 10.02 runs an over against a league rate of 8.61 for the same seasons: 1.41 an over more expensive than the typical bowler of the time, the price of a bowler who took wickets often.
The fielding record: 2 catches.
At the auction
Kyle Jamieson has gone under the hammer five times, bought three times and left unsold twice. The highest price was ₹15 cr, paid by Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2021, more than 20 times the base price. The market cooled over time: the last purchase, in 2026, cost ₹2 cr. Unsold in 2024, Kyle Jamieson was bought again in 2026 by Delhi Capitals. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Chennai Super Kings in 2023.
Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.
Where it stands
Kyle Jamieson has made 15 IPL appearances, the latest for Delhi Capitals in 2026.
