KXIP is likely to dominate the bidding tomorrow as they have the highest budget as compared to the teams. Amazingly, KXIP has a total budget of 42.7 crores.
The team had gone through a major transition over the years. It feels like 2020 would bring about right combinations instead of settling in with the traditional Mohali-based franchise in the IPL.
Gautam Gambhir who himself has served as the captain of winning team twice has mentioned the fact repeatedly that half the job of building a champion team is probably at the auction table itself. It seems that KXIP is paying heed to the advice.
Following the lead of Ashwin Ravichandran, it is now Anil Kumble time to show his magic. There are rumours that Kumble will form the inherited combination with Ashwin. The franchise has already traded the spinner to the Delhi-Capitals.
