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.

Have both priced themselves out the auction?

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

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
