IPL IPL Player Auction 2011

[CG123]

How much research have some of these guys done, I wouldn't be surprised if over half the teams are just rocking up on the day.

Pathan brothers' next few generations are guaranteed a life of comfort

You and your McCullum hate again. I wouldn't be crying if I just got picked up for $475k.

Yeah, fair enough. He was pretty lucky to be picked up really. I mean if those auctioneers were looking at just his past IPL form. Although, you would have thought his double century might've got people interested...

I've always said that he's pretty inconsistent. He can rock up one day and smash 158 and then averages 15.80 in the remaining matches.

These guys are obviously on the piss

They must be. Johan Botha....you are kidding me. Gayle is one of my favourte players, but it probably serves him right for not making his WICB contract.

 

[SaiSrini]

Irfan getting more than a million. I guess the allrounder tag is helping him even though he is ridiculously out of touch.

Those are probably the menus for lunch.

Pathan brothers rope in $4mn

I'm amazed at KXIP decision to not retain any of yuvi,mahela and irfan. because they almost paid more than what they would have had to give if they had retained them, they look clueless at the moment.

 

[Dipak]

Hope Swann gets picked in Deccan, Chennai or Mumbai and same with Anderson. Celebrations must be going around the Pathan's house. 4 million$

 

[Cricketman]

Pathans are looking at 12 million dollars over the next 3 years!

 

[LongLegs?]

Lol. Bidding 1.8M for Pathan - Punjab could've just retained him at that price.

But, yeah, I wouldn't have predicted Irfan going for 1.9M. Most ridiculous bidding ever.

Majorly happy with the bidding from Bangalore though. Superb so far.

 

[ferg512]

It's not really a surprise the internationals aren't getting that much. When you only play four in a team, you don't need extras.

 

[mohit_dude10]

Rcb,Kochi going pretty good.. getting good picks.

 

[Cricketman]

I would totally take RP. Cmon Chennai, about $600k should do.
