Sunday was not a good day for Jofra Archer as the England and Rajasthan Royals pacer was taken to the cleaners by the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) batters. The Royals brought him back wigth a lot of optimism and there was a sense of belief when Archer returned back to his home.

However, the money spent on him looked drained out already as the fast bowler looked a pale shadow of himself against SRH and conceded 76 runs in 4 overs, which became the most expensive spell in IPL history.

He surpassed Mohit Sharma, who previously held that record. Archer had a disappointing outing and in this piece, we will see how much the Rajasthan franchise spent to bring back Archer in the squad.

Archer's IPL journey

Archer was an unknown commodity in 2018 when Rajasthan acquired his services and he never looked back as the pacer instantly became a hit for the Rajasthan side.

In the 2020 season, he won the Most Valuable player of the League award, but injuries hampered his season afterwards. Ahead of the 2022 season, RR released him and Mumbai Indians bought him, but poor performances and injuries continued to haunt the franchise as they released him ahead of the 2024 season and RR pounced on him during the auction ahead of this season.
