During the Champions Trophy 2025, cricket fans had the opportunity to see Wiaan Mulder’s skill in action as the South African all-rounder put up strong performances for his squad. He was recruited by Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) to replace Brydon Carse for the next Indian Premier League (IPL) season, proving that his efforts were not in vain. He has been selected for INR 75 lakh for his first-ever IPL season.
Mulder, who took six wickets in just three games, had a big effect in the Champions Trophy 2025. He entered the IPL 2025 auction with a base price of 75 lakh, but at first he was not sold.
Nevertheless, SRH ultimately chose to replace him after seeing his versatility and ability to benefit the squad.
