IPL auction today
I see Cummings getting 2m+ and Tom Banton becoming a millionaire
Chris Morris and Morgan should also go for decent money
-
Pooran will go for big money factoring in his Indian heritage. Doubt anyone would want Morgan considering his back problems.
-
Be amazed if World Cup Winning Captain doesn't get a gig. Would be a shrewd signing for one franchise as captain IMO.
As said on here, Cummins, Banton, Pooran be the big winners I think. Imagine Hetmyer too and Cotterell. Philippe probably put a few $ on his pricetag after yesterday too. Perfect timing for a knock like that.
No doubt be some washed up stars going for silly $ too, this is the IPL after all
-
I can see Hetmyer being the big winner today after his knock against India last week.
Must be an odd day to be a cricketer, like being handed a winning lottery ticket or sent home empty handed!
-
Chris Lynn gone to Mumbai
Morgan to KKR
Roy to Dehli
Aaron Finch to RCB which is his 8th IPL team
-
Err, Glenn Maxwell ££££££££££££££££££££££££££
-
Cummins now as well
-
Is this on tv at all?
-
Cummins to kkr
De grandhomme unsold
-
Cummins $2.2m
Maxwell $1.5m
-
Morris $1.4m
S Curran $770,000
-
Really don't understand Curran at CSK: unless you're Bravo or Watson you don't get in that team as an all-rounder. Besides look at all our other English players who have gone there and barely (No Swearing Please) played; Willey, Wood, Billings etc
-
Depends on whether Bravo's actually fit or he's just gonna be singing and dancing tbh. Chennai would be a good ground for Curran to develop his skills
-
KKR with some massive signings so far
Can’t understand kings 11 buying maxwell back for that much

Probably tying him down as his international career seems to be nearing its end
-
Rajasthan once again sign up Unadkat, but no more million dollar payday - $420,000. Seems generous for a pretty mediocre bowler.
-
Sheldon Cottrell $1.2m. Salute that
-
Yeah, feel like that's a smart buy.
Why am I convinced some team is going to pay stupid money for Hetmyer again
-
Nathan Coulter-Nile $1.1m
-
Chris Jordan snapped up
Tom Banton snapped up for 100k to KKR. opening up with Narine!
-
That KKR team looks as solid as can be. Can't see them not appointing Morgan as captain either...
-

A Guyanese big hitter that’s incredible against spin will always go for big money - has an incredible record in India as well. Went for roughly $1.1m.
-
When you’re a foreign player you hope a franchise suitable to your game signs you up.
For example Chris Lynn, huge hitter and hapless against spin. Mumbai should be right up his street.
-

He'll get a nice payday, same as others before him. Don't believe a word of it when they start talking about 'improving their game', English players go backwards at the IPL often as not.
-
Mumbai Indians strong as ever..
-
Far too much money for Curran in my opinion, some flat decks and small grounds and lack of pace, cant see it going to well
-

90 runs in 5 innings at 18 in last years competition
214 runs in 9 innings at 23 in 9 T20Is in India (also playing Afghanistan)
His ODI numbers in India are more respectful at just under 44 with two hundreds, but I still regard it as too much money

Granted his t20 numbers aren’t as good as his ODI numbers. But RCB is pretty much the VK and AB show. They never utilise their other players properly.
I think Hetmyer will enjoy Delhi more especially as Ponting isn’t one to go easy on his players. Additionally he may well enjoy playing with the likes of Shaw, Pant etc
-

Yes, much money for Curran. Slow pitch in Chennai would help. CSK also picked Piyush Chawla for a million.

IPL auction day
Moeen has still opted in for the auction unlike wood.
IPL flops Maxwell and finch will still end up with 1M+ contracts
-
IPL Auction day always makes me think....if I was a professional cricketer in the auction pool, would I prefer getting bought for less by a team where I will potentially get to play all games or would I prefer getting the highest possible pay check for my caliber even if I would end up warming the benches most season. That would make for an interesting poll :D
-
I think most would probably take the games? The extra money probably wouldn't stop you going absolutely spare sitting in a hotel in India for two months. Depends on the player (and their finances!) though of course, if not playing doesn't bother you then happy days, take the money! It's definitely been a problem for some English players in the past - Roy for example has ended up in woefully poor nick after benchwarming at the IPL instead of playing the start of the English season.
-
Think Hales would be a big buy - Surprised he wasn’t picked up last year
Malan could go for decent money but likely to be a bench warmer
Jamieson also likely to get a big payday
-
Think Shakib will go for big money.
Be interesting with Malan, Hales etc... because of their record vs spin which counts for alot in the IPL.
Wood opting out at the last minute is probably a good thing because he would have warmed the bench whilst in a bubble which although having a payday has to put a negative spin on it this year.
-
Hales unsold again!!
-
And Roy unsold
-
Have both priced themselves out the auction?
-
And Roy unsold
Think his record against spin has counted against him?
-
How does this work? Is that it for Hales/Roy? If so very suprised Hales not picked up after top scoring on BBL.
Also how in the hell does Maxwell get so much interest? Had a shocker last IPL season.
-
I am not sure why there is no love for Hales. The same used to be the case for Guptill as well..a world class opener, but was never in demand. Shame.
-
How much in GBP is 1 crore? I can't work it out, but Maxwell has gone for silly money
-
What do teams see in Glenn Maxwell, I don't get it
-
Shakib Al Hasan is in a different class to Maxwell. Yet almost went unsold. Are the people running these teams clueless!
-
he bats, bowls and is an awesome fielder. Not sure he's worth over $1m though. Bet he's grinning like a Cheshire cat
-

Couldn't agree more, don't think it's any surprise that Shakib has gone to Morgan's team
-
What will sell most in India a Shirt with Maxwell on or Hales?
I think their is definitely some marketing thoughts that go into the buys.
-
Good pay day for Mo here and he actually has a chance of playing at either CSK or Punjab
-
Glenn Maxwell’s future in laws are Indian, no wonder the franchises love him so much. He’s been terrible in pretty much every IPL yet is getting nearly $2m
Happy than Moeen got himself a mega deal $950,000
-
Do the players receive the exact sum they are sold for-on at least a player plus his agent?
-
Maxwell £1.5m, Malan £150k. These Indian owners are bonkers!
-
Maxwell’s been stealing a IPL living
Morris 2.2m
Can’t believe Hales gone unsold
Time to bash Moeen for playing IPL
-
When you compare some of the prices and players it's bizarre. Malan and Maxwell is a perfect example
One big boys club
-
Morris the most expensive player ever I think I read on Twitter. Another player that seems to get the massive gigs all the time without actually doing much.
As for the unsold players, if I remember rightly teams declare who they have an ‘interest’ in and these return at the end for another mini auction and all players start with their base price the next step down to what they first went up for. I think teams can also if they feel they need/want to do deals away from the auction directly with the players as long as they fit within the salary cap. Not sure if this is the case this year but that used to be the case.
-
Local Indian player gets 600k
-
Local India player gets £900k. Crazy.
-
Think that local spinner got 1M plus two years ago. “Mystery” spinner
-
The crazy price for Aussie players continues with Meredith
-
Pujara gets an IPL deal, but Hales doesn't. Unreal!
-
You all need to remember with the IPL, Indian players don't count to the overseas quota so naturally are going to command a premium price - even the most average players will get picked up.
As for Hales vs Maxwell etc - it's all about marketability, these franchises are being run to attempt to make a profit don't forget. Maxwell's fiancée has an Indian heritage which will make a huge difference.
-
Jamieson Goes for 2m
Henriques who’s never performed in the IPL gets another pay day
-
There we are each team puts forward 8-10 players that are unsold that they are interested in and they will re-enter the auction. So all is not lost for Roy/Hales and others
-
Talking of terrible players who keep getting a gig.. was retained so not in the auction but Jaydev unadkat... absolutely shocking cricketer
-
The main issue for Hales and Roy is this isn’t a fresh auction just merely a top up. So all sides have pretty much the same squads as last year. So they’ve already stocked up on openers.
All isn’t lost but there’s an IPL expansion in 2022 - two more franchises
-
Least billings got picked up. Had a good season
-
Arjun Tendulkar being bought for 20lacs is just wrong!! There are better local players out there who deserve it more.
-
We do all realize that the IPL owners don't care about winning... that's a bonus! They just want to make MONEY!

Probably give him a token game for his dad. Makes a mockery of professional cricket, but cricket is also a game of who you know.
A lot of Aussies picked up over the years as their mates are coaches
-
Feel happy for Moeen - bit of justice after being unfairly thrown under the bus.
