Since the last couple of seasons, Mahipal Lomror has been a reliable batsman at the end of the Rajasthan Royals' lineup. His recent performances in the domestic circuit, which included scores like 69, 55, 46, 85, and 101, have also been pretty hot, which got a lot of people interested when his name came up at the auction table. The Challengers had to dig deep to land the youngster but they were persistent enough to bring him to the table. He was bought by the Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 95 lakh.
