Bidding for any player (no matter how great) for more than 200,000 USD for 20/20 format game is insane to me.
20/20 is all tukkaybaazi - you can never bank on one player (no matter how great batsman or bowler) to win you 20/20 games on a consistent basis. That is the reason why unheard of Indian domestic players seemed to play as well as big International players in last year's IPL.
And to offer USD 650,000 to Robin Uthappa...
I agree,....how long is the league? 3-4 weeks?
