i think Reddy would've opted for the auction anyway, surely he can earn more than 4CR

I am more interested in the retention strategies of MI and KKR.
Mi have brought back Jayawardena,so the focus is clearly on winning another title and mending the ways. 4 retentions can easily be Rohit, Bumrah,Panyda and SKY. But what roles will they essay?
You have a World Cup winning captain(who is the current Indian Test and ODI leader), the Indian Vice-captain, the Existing Indian T20 captain and their current MI captain. Will they rejig? Who gets what? When Rohit was sacked, SKY and Bumrah openly supported him.
KKR interests me cause they have a history of making KXIP-esque retention decisions. There are talks that they may drop Iyer, which doesn't make sense at all. Why would you drop the guy who gave you the IPL? Agreed, his form isn't top-notch, but the leadership has been spot on. Also, I feel it is time for them to move on from Narine and Russell, who are way past their prime now.
