0

Abhinav Manohar, Mayank Agarwal and Devdutt Padikkal walked away with the big bucks, bought by Shivamogga Lions, Kalyani Bengaluru Blasters and Gulbarga Mystics for ₹15 lakh, ₹14 lakh and ₹13 lakh respectively, in the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 auction held at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium here on Saturday.

Abhinav has played two seasons of Indian Premier League cricket for Gujarat Titans and impressed with a strike-rate in excess of 140. Mayank and Padikkal are proven India internationals and IPL stars, with the latter even part of the victorious Mystics squad that won the trophy last year.

Manish Pandey was picked up by Hubli Tigers for ₹10.6 lakh, while J. Suchith was bagged by Mysore Warriors for 8.4 lakh. All-rounder Manoj Bhandage, who was part of the Royal Challengers Bangalore set-up in 2023 but didn’t get a game, was sold to the Warriors for a princely sum of ₹9 lakh.

There were sizeable deals for breakout Karnataka stars from the 2022-23 season — V. Vyshak (₹8.8 lakh, Mystics), Nikin Jose (₹7 lakh, Mangaluru Dragons) and Vidwath Kaverappa (₹6.7 lakh, Tigers).

The surprise of the day was in the Warriors shelling out ₹7.4 lakh for pacer Prasidh Krishna. Though a top-draw cricketer and an India international, Prasidh has not played a competitive game since August 2022 because of a stress facture.

On Friday however, the BCCI provided an update which stated that Prasidh was in his final stage of rehab and was bowling with full intensity in the nets.

The Maharaja Trophy gets underway in Bengaluru on August 13.
