Nehal Wadhera - IPL factfile

- Nehal Wadhera's first-ever T20 appearance was in the IPL. Picked by Mumbai Indians (MI) for IPL 2023, he made his debut against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), impressing straightaway with a 21 off 15 from No. 6.

- MI used him as a floater that season and he gave them good returns. He scored two fifties, one of which helped MI chase down 199 against RCB.

- Wadhera, however, did not make MI's XI for the first few games in IPL 2024. In his first match of that season, he scored 49 off 24 balls. He played a total of six games that season as MI finished bottom of the table.

- He was released by MI ahead of the mega auction in 2024. Entering at a base price of INR 30 lakh, he had the likes of Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Delhi Capitals (DC) bidding for him, before Punjab Kings (PBKS) landed him for INR 4.20 crore.
