It was two busy days for the 10 IPL teams as a lot of planning and strategy went into the auction.
At the end of all the efforts, all the franchises must have been satisfied with their work over the last two days of grueling auction. In fact, it is well said that half of the IPL is won or lost at the auction table and as it was a mega auction, the statement made more sense.
