5 most expensive buys in the history of the Delhi Daredevils

3.Irfan Pathan- Bought for Rs. 12 crores in 2011

Irfan Pathan could do little to make his cost feel worthwhile

When one looks back at the history of the IPL and the players who could not quite set the field ablaze, Irfan Pathan's name would surely feature in the top 5 in the list.

The Baroda all-rounder was in the 2011 auction purchased by the franchise for a whopping sum of Rs. 11 crores, a purchase which while was not a surprising purchase in terms of the quality of the player, but surely was high in terms of the money spent on him.

In return, Pathan could muster up a mere 150 runs in 14 matches and could take only 11 wickets in the same number of matches.
