New Zealand all-rounder Glenn Phillips, a dynamic middle-order batter known for his power-hitting, has gone unsold during Day 2 of the IPL 2025 Auction. Despite his ability to change the game with both bat and ball, no franchise bid for the Kiwi player, who had set his base price at INR 2 crore.
Glenn Phillips in IPL History
Phillips made his IPL debut with Rajasthan Royals back in the 2021 season. In the IPL 2022 Mega Auction, he was acquired by Sunrisers Hyderabad for INR 1.50 crore and continued with the team until the 2024 season. However, his lack of consistent opportunities and underwhelming performances may have contributed to his unsold status in this year’s auction.
Glenn Phillips’ IPL Stats:
- Matches: 8
- Runs: 65
- Average: 9.29
- Fours: 3
- Sixes: 6
While Phillips is regarded as a striking middle-order batter and a handy all-rounder, his limited impact in previous seasons could explain why franchises chose to pass on him.
Phillips’ IPL Salary History:
| Year | IPL Team | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 | Sunrisers Hyderabad | INR 1.50 Cr |
| 2023 | Sunrisers Hyderabad | INR 1.50 Cr |
| 2024 | Sunrisers Hyderabad | INR 1.50 Cr |
As of now, Phillips remains unsold, but there’s always a chance for a comeback if teams opt to recall him during the accelerated round of the auction.
