IPL 2023 Auction: 3 Teams Who Can Target Chris Lynn In The IPL Auction. With Sunil Narine, Chris Lynn created one of the most lethal opening combinations in IPL history from 2017 to 2019. Chris Lynn was playing for KKR at the time. However, since leaving KKR, his stock has fallen sharply.
He was acquired by Mumbai Indians for his basic price of INR 2 crores, however, he only appeared in one game in IPL 2020 since Quinton de Kock was out, and he was benched for the whole IPL 2021 season before being released. When Chris Lynn similarly set his base price of INR 1.5 crores for the IPL 2022 mega-auction, he remained unsold.
