Mumbai Indians are the champions of IPL 2017

[Sin Nombre]

RCB putting all their eggs in the Tymal Mills basket.

If he stays fit with their batting power, he might still be a good price at 1200L.

 

[JattMaula]

This crore shrore numbering system is a bit too complicated for my liking. Much better to use the universal USD.

Bhai IndianPL

And it's profitable to pay in rupees.

 

[Sin Nombre]

Really good pick from RCB.

Overpriced but agreed.

He is going to be available the entire tournament.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

I would win IPL alone on the fact that I would beat these clueless people at the auction with smart bids.


Mills is absolute average. I saw him at BPL, he was quite ****.

 

[Statsman]

RCB putting all their eggs in the Tymal Mills basket.

Is he available for the entire season?

Its time foreigners learn about Indian currency. Our money, our rules

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

12 cror for Mills????

 

[R0H1T]

Tymal Mills is going for crazy bidding here

over 11 crore already

What is good for the goose is stupidly good for the gander, Stokes & Mills being the two beneficiaries.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Imagine if Starc was at the auction. He would go for at least 25 cror if that is possible.

 

[volcyz]

Tymal Mills pure garbage gets some free $$$

Lol at these bidders

 

[Sin Nombre]

Is he available for the entire season?

Yep.

T20 specialist with his back condition.

 

[R0H1T]

Imagine if Starc was at the auction. He would go for at least 25 cror if that is possible.

No he'd still come below the best Indian players, for obvious reasons.

Tymal Mills pure garbage gets some free $$$

Yup stupid fanbois them owners.

 

[cricketjoshila]

Next year Purses will be tripled.Man the prices will be through the roof.

 

[JattMaula]

50+ crore for kholi?

 

[LastManstanding]

Ishant Sharma unsold [MENTION=134809]sensible-indian-fan[/MENTION]

 

[volcyz]

LOL "Unlucky ishant" no bids along with Kyle Abott.

Understand Guptill sucks vs spin like the useless Darcy Short, but Roy going unsold is astounding.

 

[R0H1T]

Next year Purses will be tripled.Man the prices will be through the roof.

What, who said that? They should really put a hard cap on individual player salaries & especially on foreigners. This is daylight robbery, really it's the 1.3 billion people who'd be paying for this farce of an auction

 

[JattMaula]

LOL "Unlucky ishant" no bids along with Kyle Abott.

No team needs pure batsman for this season? And availability issues with English players.

 

[cricketjoshila]

50+ crore for kholi?

God knows...But IPL rights are supposed to triple or quadruple in value.So more money to team owners.Lets see.

Heard from a source.Things will be clear around Oct 2017.

 

[HitWicket]

Morgan went for double Roy's base price though!

 

[JattMaula]

Morgan went for double Roy's base price though!

Punjab needs a Captain. Keep up.

 

[volcyz]

Over the hill crap like Kieron Pollard retained for 950 lakhs lol, any pace at this guy and he is useless like in this years BBL.
Only the low bouncing pitches is probably saving him.

 

[R0H1T]

God knows...But IPL rights are supposed to triple or quadruple in value.So more money to team owners.Lets see.

That also depends on how much will the rights be sold for, the last IPL rights were for 10yrs & this time it might be 5yrs or less. Smaller cycle means more money the next time bids come in, so at least 2~3x is more reasonable given we don't know how the IPL rights cycle(s) would go in the future.

 

[volcyz]

Haha Imran Tahir unsold, most likely no teams like him.

 

[HitWicket]

Punjab needs a Captain. Keep up.

And they're going to pick the guy who won't be there for half the tournament to do that?

 

[Sin Nombre]

Heard from a source.Things will be clear around Oct 2017.

What do the sources say about the # of teams?


The league is still in its infancy. I would expect young Indian starlets to command increasing prices over time.

This time

TV rights to be sold or 10years

Digital and Internet rights for 5 years.

Estimate is around 3-4bnUSD for this plus later add on when Digital rights are sold for another 5 years.

CSK and RR will return. Rest nothing is sure.Many factors into play.

 

[LastManstanding]

Morgan went for double Roy's base price though!

Dont know how franchises think tbh but Morgan being a proven finisher in T20s went in his favour I guess. Teams prefer to spend on foreign players who could bat lower down the order and tend to play greenhorns as openers.

 

[LastManstanding]

Why didnt DD bid for Mishra or Tahir?

 

[Zak_Fan]

Tahir goes unsold.

 

[Sin Nombre]

Why didnt DD bid for Mishra or Tahir?

DD had Tahir last year and were unimpressed.

 

[JattMaula]

And they're going to pick the guy who won't be there for half the tournament to do that?

That's their limit though. Punjab know they aren't reaching playoffs anyway

 

[sundries]

It could be possible that in most Matches Delhi Daredevils all 4 overseas players are South Africans .. De Kock,JP Duminy,Morris and Rabada ..

 

[Sin Nombre]

Mohammad Nabi sells for 30L, first Afghani to play in the IPL.

 

[JattMaula]

Nabi goes to Hyderabad!

 

[Gabbar Singh]

This crore shrore numbering system is a bit too complicated for my liking. Much better to use the universal USD.

lol you're right.

But roughly 1 crore Indian rupees = $150k. And 1 lakh Indian rupees = $1500.

 

[troodon]

My team SRH gets Nabi at 30 lakhs.

Hope he does well. 1good season and he will be get a lot more next year.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

The players get paid pro rata so Stokes will only get 40-50% of his auction figure depending on what
% of the IPL he's available for.

 

[Sin Nombre]

Gowtham goes for 200L!!

 

[Vayuu]

Gowtham k base price 10l sold for 200l,***

 

[JattMaula]

The players get paid pro rata so Stokes will only get 40-50% of his auction figure depending on what
% of the IPL he's available for.

But Pune get their purse cut by whole amount.

 

[sundries]

Nabi goes to SRH ..Hope he gets to play some games .. It's hard at times with the four foreign players Rule ..

 

[cricketjoshila]

Gowtham k base price 10l sold for 200l,***

The thrashing he gave aussies yesterday worked.

 

[R0H1T]

The players get paid pro rata so Stokes will only get 40-50% of his auction figure depending on what
% of the IPL he's available for.

It's still a bad buy though, kinda like Freddie circa 2008~09 IIRC.

 

[JattMaula]

Goutham

http://www.espncricinfo.com/india-v-australia-2016-17/engine/match/1082201.html

Keep in mind that he is offspinner primarily.

 

[Sin Nombre]

The thrashing he gave aussies yesterday worked.

Great timing from him. Aussies probably conceded 150 in that session.

 

[Tekcirc]

50+ crore for kholi?

Kohli will never be bid upon.

 

[cricketjoshila]

Kohli will never be bid upon.

Kyun bhai?

 

[Tekcirc]

Kyun bhai?

Why on earth will RCB ever let him go?

 

[BaaliSoda]

It's still a bad buy though, kinda like Freddie circa 2008~09 IIRC.

That was one of the worst buy (more like an ego massaging decision) from my favt IPL team. Totally clueless purchase of a player who was well past his best days in cricket.

 

[Sin Nombre]

Why on earth will RCB ever let him go?

They will be forced to under current rules.

 

[run-out]

Kyun bhai?

Why would any franchise leave him

 

[Tekcirc]

Mispronunciation of Indian names are too funny by this auctioneer

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

The base prices, budget caps and salary of all clubs shall be doubled/ tripled next year. Teams shall be valued based on their new price.

Indian star players like Dhoni, Rohit, Dhawan, Bumrah, UV, Rahul, Ashwin, Jaddu, Kohli will all make a lot of money.

Even overseas stars like Smith, Abd, Gayle, Starc, Stokes, Boult, Shakib, Malinga, Pollard, Bravo, Warner, Maxi will get enormous hikes.

Retained players have their own contract with their own teams. They make much more than the money lost by franchises to retain them. Kohli might be already getting 15 crore if not more.

Next year likely no retention.

Next year likely no retention.

30 crore then

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Why was Tahir unsold?

http://www.iplt20.com/news/2016/announcements/7035/ipl-actual-salary-details-of-retained-players

Hmmm

There will be no retainment next season right? If Pune and Gujarat continue then it shall be 10 teams in the tourney. More chances for local and international stars.

Imagine Dhoni moving to Bangalore, Kohli moving to Kolkata, Rohit moving to Chennai, will be a bitter pill for loyal fans )

 

[JattMaula]

30 crore then

Official salary.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Why was Tahir unsold?

Mills did well against IND in recent T20's, Tahir never performed so well against us and moreover even local Ind players play leg spin well.

He might get picked in round 2 of auction when his base price is reduced.

 

[Tekcirc]

Official salary.

he made 15 last year... this year it might be as good as 20

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Mills did well against IND in recent T20's, Tahir never performed so well against us and moreover even local Ind players play leg spin well.

He is ranked nr. 1 in T20 and ODI.

Just took a fifer against NZ.

I would take Tahir over Mills anyday of the week.

 

[Abhilash93]

LOL "Unlucky ishant" no bids along with Kyle Abott.

Susceptible against spin

 

[Abhilash93]

I would win IPL alone on the fact that I would beat these clueless people at the auction with smart bids.


Mills is absolute average. I saw him at BPL, he was quite ****.

RCB coach Vettori saw him first hand at Brisbane Heat this year. Also, Kohli played him in the T20 series vs England. They are not as clueless as you think

 

[JattMaula]

He is ranked nr. 1 in T20 and ODI.

Check his economy rate in IPL. Why waste a overseas slot for a spinner when his performance can be nearly matched by a local spinner or all-rounder?

 

[JattMaula]

Susceptible against spin

Very suspect! Same with Martin Guptil.

 

[Tekcirc]

It doesn't mean jack @IPL. Indians have always tonked Tahir all around the park. Steyn is without a doubt world's best for a long time but he fizzled big time in IPL.

 

[BaaliSoda]

RCB coach Vettori saw him first hand at Brisbane Heat this year. Also, Kohli played him in the T20 series vs England. They are not as clueless as you think

Agreed. There is a method behind madness.

Mills could be the vital cog (especially with Starc missing out) for RCB in the summer time dry tracks (across the country) of April/May.

 

[Abhilash93]

Check his economy rate in IPL. Why waste a overseas slot for a spinner when his performance can be nearly matched by a local spinner or all-rounder?

Yes, economy of 8.6+ in IPL.

No amount of wickets against a weak spin playing team like NZ can change that.

 

[HitWicket]

Susceptible against spin

Yet still managed to be in the team of the tournament for the wt20 in the same conditions!

 

[BaaliSoda]

It doesn't mean jack @IPL. Indians have always tonked Tahir all around the park. Steyn is without a doubt world's best for a long time but he fizzled big time in IPL.

Yep, Tahir didn't set world on fire at IPL. Barring 1 season in 2014 (is it?) even Mitchell Johnson was a big flop at IPL.

Meanwhile, Afghani Rashid khan is going big here.

 

[JattMaula]

Hyderabad and Mumbai fighting for Rashid Khan above 2 crore.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Holy crap. What where you guys saying about spinners?

 

[JattMaula]

Hyderabad and Mumbai fighting for Rashid Khan above 2 crore.

And Hyderabad get him for 4 crore.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Rankings don't matter. If majority of Indians players can play something well (leg spin) why pick them for matches on our surfaces?

DeKock, Abd, Rabada, Steyn, Morkel, Faf and even Duminy are valued higher to Tahir as far as IPL is concerned.

Moreover, Mills is available whole season whereas Tahir might be gone for SA international duties in between.

 

[JattMaula]

Holy crap. What where you guys saying about spinners?

Good spinners. Zampa, Rashid etc.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Good spinners. Zampa, Rashid etc.

Big turners of the ball unlike tahir.
