No other team has made a bid for Arjun Tendulkar. Arjun debuted at the Syed Mushtaq Ali Tournament this year, but his performance is no exception. In his debut against Haryana, Arjun scored 34 runs in three overs and could only manage one wicket. But Arjun did not get much chance in batting. However, before the IPL auction, Arjun scored an unbeaten 77 off 31 balls and took three wickets for 41 in Group I’s second tour match of the Police Invitation Shield Cricket Tournament.

Maurice was the highest paid IPL bidder, followed by New Zealand’s Kyle Jamison, who was added to the team by Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 15 crore. Jamieson is known for his big shots, with which he bowls well. Glenn Maxwell was bought by RCB for $ 14.25 crore. For India, if Harbhajan Singh is not sold on the first bid and goes to the Kolkata Knight Riders in the second bid, Krishnappa Gautam is the most expensive player. Gautam was inducted into the Chennai Super Kings for Rs 9.25 crore.
