The PKL season 12 auctions have begun on May 31, and will continue through June 1 with plenty of superstars up for grabs.
Charismatic Iranian all rounder Mohammedreza Shadloui Chiyaneh was first up for bidding, and it went down to the wire, before Gujarat Giants snapped him up for a whopping Rs 2.23 Crores (already more than the highest bid from the last auction which had 2.15 Cr for Sachin Tanwar). It’s the third season in a row that Shadloui has crossed the 2 crore mark in the auctions.
Dabang Delhi used their FBM to get Ashu Malik for Rs. 1.90 Cr., as the category A raiders attracted big numbers with Arjun Deshwal going to Tamil Thalaivas for Rs. 1.405 Cr and the best raider from last season, while Devank Dalal went for the second highest bid of the day at Rs 2.205 Cr.
Ten players crossed the Rs 1 Cr mark on day 1.
Iranian Fazel Atrachali surprisingly went for the base price of Rs 30 lakhs. In an even more surprising move, Pawan Kumar Sehrawat almost went unsold before a late bidding war saw him go to Tamil Thalaivas for Rs 59.5 lakhs.
28 players went up for auction on day 1 and only two went unsold (including one of the greatest to play PKL, Pardeep Narwal).
With more players to go under the hammer on June 1, we will continue to update this page to tell you who has brought whom and for how much in the PKL season 12 auctions:
