IPL 2024
-
IPL Auction is underway. After Pat Cummins has set a record price for the IPL of A$3.67 million, there is some relatively massive bidding currently underway for Daryl Mitchell - back of an envelope maths from me makes it well north of NZ$2 million at the moment...
Rachin Ravindra became a Chennai Super King earlier for circa NZ$350k.

Yep, that will be NZ$2.7 million. Just reading in the Sydney Morning Herald blog in A$
Kiwi all-rounder earns $2.5m
We’re running through the all-rounders now. No more Aussies for the time being but there have been a few big deals elsewhere.New Zealand all-rounder Daryl Mitchell joins the Chennai Super Kings for $2.5 million, Indian all-rounder Harshal Patel goes to the Punjab Kings for $2.1 million, South Africa’s Gerald Coetzee joins the Mumbai Indians for $893,000, Indian quick Shardul Thakur is snapped up by the Chennai Super Kings for $715,000 and Afghanistan’s World Cup breakout star Azmatullah Omarzai joins the Gujarat Titans for (a bargain) $89,000.

Apparently Ravindra set his reserve pre ODI WC. Bargain.

Mitchell's reserve wasn't much higher than Ravindra's. Ravindra had a few bids, but seemed to only be between a couple of teams. Mitchell just kept going and going. At 32 that's a great payday for Mitch, I guess Ravindra has plenty of time to prove his worth.
Cummins and Starc between them could probably buy a few sporting teams now.
Always interesting to see what the teams are thinking. Ravindra might have gone relatively cheap, yet Steve Smith got no bids at all.
-
Yeah, he may have gone cheap but it is all relative of course.
This is his biggest payday in his life so far.
So much has happened so quickly for him that it is probably
A good thing that he didn’t go for a big $ number that brings a lot of expectation with it.He has plenty of years ahead of him to earn a fortune playing
Cricket. Good for him! -

Jamieson syndrome.
So CSK have Flem as a coach and Conway, Mitchel and Ravindra. Who's their 4th overseas player? Think they are only allowed 4?

It looks like you can have up to 8 overseas players in your squad but there is a limit of 4 in your playing XI.
