Kartik Sharma: The Record-Breaking Finisher Rising from the domestic circuits of Rajasthan, Kartik Sharma has become the talk of the cricketing world. At just 19 years old, the wicketkeeper-batter secured a historic INR 14.2 Crore deal with Chennai Super Kings during the 2026 IPL auction, making him the joint-most expensive uncapped player in the league’s history.
Known for his fearless approach and clean ball-striking, Kartik first turned heads during the 2025 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, where he hammered 133 runs at a strike rate exceeding 160. His ability to finish games and clear the boundaries with ease has drawn comparisons to some of the game’s greatest power-hitters. Now, under the guidance of the CSK leadership, the Jaipur-born sensation is poised to be the “X-factor” for the Yellow Army in the upcoming season.
