Deepak Hooda upgrades his base price; 10 new players added to the list

Ahead of the auction, Deepak Hooda, who made his India debut against West Indies in the ODI series, upgraded his base price to 75 lakhs, according to a report in ESPNCricinfo. He was in the 40 lakh bracket earlier. Also, 10 uncapped players have been added to the list which makes it 600 players registered for the auction.

The 10 new players: Nivethan Radhakrishnan, Aaron Hardie, Lance Morris, Hardik Tamore, Mihir Hirwani, , Agnivesh Ayachi, , Nitish Kumar Reddy, Monu Kumar, Rohan Rana, Sairaj Patil

Ahead of the IPL auction, former India captain Sunil Gavaskar has asked for a radical change. He feels that the income of uncapped players at the mega auction event must be capped at Rs 1 crore.

“Far too many get carried away and lose focus and are out of the game or seek the mirage of greener-looking pastures. The fair thing would be to put a limit of say R1 crore for uncapped players so that they know that to go further and earn more they have a lot of hard work ahead,” Gavaskar wrote in his column in Mid-day.

Right to Match (RTM) card in this auction?

There will be no RTM card in auction this year as BCCI decided against it. An RTM card was used by a team to buy back a player they earlier employed at the highest bidding price the cricketer receives in the auction.
