5 Most expensive equipment of cricketers sold at auction

2. Sir Donald Bradman's Test cap worn in 1947-48 Test series against India:

Sir Donald Bradman made his Test debut against England in 1928. Nearly a century later, his iconic baggy green cap was sold for an astonishing INR 2.63 crore at a Bonhams auction after a fierce bidding war. Notably, before the cap was sold for INR 2.14 crore, the buyer pushed the total price higher. 

The baggy green cap was handed to Pankaj Gupta, the manager of the Indian team, during their historic tour of Australia. This series was India’s first international cricket series as an independent nation. Meanwhile, Gupta later gave the cap to the Indian team's wicketkeeper, PK Sen. The cap was with the Indian team for decades before it was loaned to the Bradman Museum in Bowral, the cricketer’s hometown, in 2010.
