IPL Auction

[spell_check]

Silly me, I thought the tournament was about cricket ...

What I've generally thought about 20/20 cricket, but in particular the BCCIPL, is that it is merely a sideshow. WSC may have been called a circus when it began, but at least the cricket was of the highest standard.

Andrew Symonds went to harbahjans side I do believe?? Interesting to see how that goes

Can see the monkey chants already.
All they need is shreesanth in that side aswell. Would be comedy in changeroom

Would love to see Harbhajan try slap Symonds like he did Sreesanth!

O'Keefe just went for 20k to Kochi
Clint McKay to Mumbai to 110k

O'keeffe will barely cover the plane ticket. Not worth it really

They must get match payments too.

Absolute bargain. Worth at least 10 times that ammount.

Christian to Deccan for 900k
Shaun Tait to Rajasthan for 300k
Matthew Wade to Delhi for 100k

Wow congrats to Dan Christian $900K a year for the next two years.

Tait 300K? Bit of a pay cut for him doubt he will be happy with that but he hardly set the world on fire last season.

i find it hard to beileve Kallis went that cheap

I wonder whether the injury he picked up in the last test might rule him out for some of the games this IPL season?

[Drop Bear]

The amount of money being thrown at players is ******* ridiculous!

[Drop Bear]

Andrew Symonds went to harbahjans side I do believe?? Interesting to see how that goes

Can see the monkey chants already.
All they need is shreesanth in that side aswell. Would be comedy in changeroom

Would love to see Harbhajan try slap Symonds like he did Sreesanth!

Love to see Roy smash his ******* head in! Smart arse prick. (yes I am mad).

Far from ordinary. He dominated for Royal Bangalore challengers and also been good for SA. Bloody handy t20 player

So when someone is "getting" $850,000 what does that mean....is it every year or is it $850,000 for a three year contract or what?

[heater31]

So when someone is "getting" $850,000 what does that mean....is it every year or is it $850,000 for a three year contract or what?

it is the fee for the season. I guess that they get a % per day of the total contract Value for the time they spend with the team.


The contract period is for 2 years with an option for a 3rd. After 2 years they all re enter the auction as per this year as you may have noticed that some have changed teams. Symonds is probably the most notable as he was on Deccan's squad for the first 2 years

Yes. The last auction was p.a. on three year deals but it seems this auction is for two year deals. So a player "on" $850K can earn a maximum of $850K per season over the next two years if they play every game.

Symonds was with Deccan for the last three years.

[smac]

There is a base payment and a match fee within the total. Play 1 game, they get base payment plus one match fee. Play all games they get the full contract value.
