<p>Joe Root was bought by Rajasthan Royals for Rs.1 crore in the <a href="https://the12thman.in/category/cricket/ipl/">IPL</a> 2023 auction in Kochi on Friday. In the initial run, he remained unsold but later bid and signed for RR in the accelerated auction.</p>



<p>The player was sold for a base price of Rs.1 crore. And no teams even made bids. The only team bid for Joe Root is Rajasthan Royals.</p><div class="15ac42f417f853844b73642249422582" data-index="1" style="float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;">

<p>He remained unsold in the 2018 IPL auction and has never featured in the T20 league. Root was a little away from the T20 plays. He last played in the <a href="https://the12thman.in/category/cricket/icc/icc-t20-world-cup/">T20</a> format for England in May 2019.</p>



<p>However, Root was a key player in England’s runner-up finish in the 2016 T20 World Cup. He scored 249 runs and his average was 49.8. His strike rate for the tournament was 146.47. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-joe-root-s-inclusion-in-the-ipl-makes-him-a-meme-material"><strong>Joe Root&#8217;s inclusion in the IPL makes him a meme material</strong></h2>



<p>Root is a great cricketer and mostly proved it in the ODIs and test matches. He is considered to be a super player in the test for England. And now he can showcase his talent in the T20 as well.</p>



<p>In the past years, Root&#8217;s status in the IPL auctions was compared with a maiden over. After his rejection in the 2018 IPL auction, he didn&#8217;t come back for the auction.</p>



<p>Ahead of the mini IPL auction 2023, he also signs in for another T20 format tournament. He gets in Dubai capitals.</p>



<p>His entry at the last minute has become meme material and many hilarious&nbsp;memes are posted by IPL fans. One of the tweets compares Root&#8217;s feel with &#8221;a crush finally saying okay to a boy &#8221;.</p>
