From CricArcade's IPL records, 2022 to 2022 · Sources

Odean Smith, a bowler, spent a single IPL season with Punjab Kings, 2022: 6 matches, 51 runs, 6 wickets.

The arrival

Odean Smith arrived through the auction: Punjab Kings paid ₹6 cr, against a base price of ₹1 cr.

That first season brought 6 matches, 51 runs and 6 wickets at 11.74 an over.

How the wickets came

The fielding record: 2 catches and 1 run-out.

At the auction

Odean Smith went under the hammer four times, bought twice and left unsold twice. The highest price was ₹6 cr, paid by Punjab Kings in 2022, more than 6 times the base price. The market cooled over time: the last purchase, in 2023, cost ₹50 lakh. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Gujarat Titans in 2023.

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

The legacy

Odean Smith made 6 IPL appearances, the last for Punjab Kings in 2022, and won 1 player-of-the-match award.
