Undoubtedly Yuvraj Singh's performance could never be equalled while he was playing for Team India. He was also the top among the highly-rated players in IPL. Yuvraj Singh began his IPL career with Kings XI Punjab in 2008 who retained the home player for the next 3 seasons until 2011.

In 2014, he was bought for a staggering price of 14 Crores by Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Again Yuvraj's value remained at the top when Delhi Daredevils (DD) bought him in 2015 for 16 crores. However, he faced a major price drop in 2016 when Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) bought him for 7 Crores and was retained in 2017.

In 2018, KXIP bought him for the base price of 2Cr while MI sacked him for base 1Cr in the 2019 auction. Overall, Yuvraj Singh was picked 6 times in the 12 IPL auctions held so far.
