The first day of the Indian T20 League turned out to be very interesting. Many unexpected players were sold for the highest possible prices, and the players that had high expectations went for minimum prices. Players like David Warner and Jason Holder were expected to break the bank, but they ended up staying in the single digits. With the ten teams bidding for many marquee players, many have formed a good squad already at day one. Ishan Kishan, Deepak Chahar, and Shreyas Iyer were able to get the biggest bids of the day, and possibly the season.
Mumbai had to let go of Ishan Kishan in their retentions, but he is not the player to be forgotten. They were keen on having him back on their side, which they successfully did. He was given the biggest bid of the day at 15.25 crores.
He first played for Mumbai in 2018 and has seen some great heights since then. Kishan has become a floating batter, which is now his USP. It was suggested by many experts o that he will be among the top-three players in the auction.
