We are just few days away from the annual bidding war for the next edition of IPL 2020. The auction will take place in Kolkata on December 19. IPL management has recently released the names of 332 players who will go under the hammer. The administration trimmed down the original list of 971 players to 332 and sent the final list to all the 8 franchises. All the eight franchises will be looking to strengthen particular slots.  This year’s IPL auction 2019 will have a total of 73 slots, of which 29 could be foreign players.

We look at the latest buzz that has been doing rounds for the upcoming IPL auction.

No Indian Player at the highest reserve price bracket!!

In this year’s auction, no Indian cricketer has been placed at the highest reserve price bracket of INR 2 crore. Players like Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Chris Lynn, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Dale Steyn and former Sri Lankan captain and all-rounder Angelo Mathews are included in this bracket.
Robin Uthappa is the only Indian in the second highest price bracket of INR 1.5 crore while three other capped Indian players — Piyush Chawla, Jaydev Unadkat and Yusuf Pathan have registered for the auction with a base price tag of INR 1 crore.

Exercise of bidding before the actual action



Rajasthan Royal’s COO, Jake Lush McCrum during an interview revealed that they have been tied up simulating the exercise of bidding for the last few days. “The simulator helps us find value estimates for all individuals in the auction. Eight of us sit in a room taking a franchise each, researching their needs and then running through the whole auction’’, he said.

Ready to spend big on Overseas Pacers - Ricky Ponting

Ahead of the IPL auction 2020, Delhi Capitals head coach Ricky Ponting said overseas fast bowlers were going to get a lot of focus and attention. He also said that all-rounders like Chris Woakes, Glenn Maxwell and Jimmy Neesham could be big picks in the upcoming IPL auction.
