[Danger in Texas]

Wade unsold. Somehow not surprised.
I feel 1mil for Maxwell was slightly overs, but he seems to have proved himself so far.

Faulkner to my Royals. You bewdy.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Henriqes to Bangalore, 300k. Good buy.

Abhishek Nayar going for a fair bit. Up to 625k.

Video as well

Ironically, Maxwell scored a first baller today.

 

[DeeWong6996]

LOL Maxwell is not worth that much.

Very surprised Chandimal and Wade were passed up on.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Darren Sammy for 425k, surprising i reckon

 

[DeeWong6996]

Hughes a bargain at 100

Hughes a bargain at 100

Yep, the fact that guys like Henriques went for 300k just proves how cheap Hughes went for. Would prefer a pure batsman over someone who's bowling isn't really strong anyway.

 

[Marshland]

Hughes will be opening with Sachin at the other end you would think.

dan christian sold cir 900k 2 years ago, so maybe he is worth that

 

[big_e]

At least we know why Maxwell went the tonk on Friday....

Hughes a bargain at 100

At that price, he's an absolute steal. I hope Mumbai realise that and open with him. Considering they overpaid massively for Slapsy, they've made their cash back with Hughes.

 

[Plugger35]

Timing is everything.

Maxwell's knock on Friday would have helped bump up his price, if the IPL auction was held tomorrow Bailey would probably be worth more than Maxwell.

He had more important matters on his mind

Surprised Finch was passed on.
Done nothing while playing for Aus, but did well in the BBL.

Finch has been to the IPL and looked pretty gash against spin. They'll all know that.

Christian has just smashed 900k's worth of damage to his house on hearing that he went unsold.

 

[Ravenous Crow]

Hughes 100k, Maxwell 1 million.

Are there any cricket people present at the auction or is it just fat businessmen throwing cash around at marketable players?

 

[jko'neal]

Faulkner dead set bargain

 

[OrdinaryJoel]

Maxwell at 1mil is mind-boggling...

 

[Danger in Texas]

Maxwell at 1mil is mind-boggling...

Seconded.

Da hell is Senanyake? Went for 625k

 

[mClarke329]
