Delhi Daredevils, who have the largest purse of Rs 39.75 crore among
all the eight franchises taking part in the auction, also bought Sri
Lankan captain and all-rounder Angelo Mathews for Rs 7.5 crore, the
third highest price in the first two rounds of auction.
RCB, who lost to DD in their bid to get Yuvraj and Mathews, bought
wicketkeeper batsman Dinesh Karthik for Rs 10.5 crore, the second
highest price, even though it was Rs 1.5 crore lower than the amount he
was bought for by DD last year. |
