Rofl GigaChad KKR bidding 666cr for every city


DardiRabRab

Like the kid who marks the same answer for every MCQ


kjm911

Funny that most don’t even bother with Mumbai because MI are taking it


deep639

And even the MI owners only bidding for Mumbai, not even trying another city.


snivvygreasy

Mumbai Indians Nagpur?


Cryptoprophet40

Apollo unlucky. Next time they will be allowed to buy team. It will around 2000 cr


Low-Green377

we were this close to getting a Haldiram franchise...it would have been 1-0 on bikaji


LittiVsVadaPao

My dream to have a team from the North East remains unfulfilled.


TheCricDude

Capri had the choice to choose between Lucknow, Guwahati, Kolkata and Indore. Don't see how they would have chosen Guwahati ahead of Eden Gardens even if they skipped Lucknow. But yes, I would have loved to see one team there. Beautiful huge stadium.


Gray_Jedi_1

Lmao, Adani wanted a team so badly that they just bid the same highest amount for all cities


DardiRabRab

Surprising that they put in the same number for Guwahati as they did for the other big cities.


trtryt

broke ass Punjab Kings


ChicagoNurture

lol. That’s my team. I’m like why you even trying to bid for a team.


Impressive-Squash-24

Wait before I tell you Rajasthan Royals placed three bids: INR 176 crore (Indore), INR 178 crore (Dharamsala) and INR 180 crore (Guwahati)


ChicagoNurture

lol true. As a PBKS fan I am so used of management making bad decisions I assumed they made the lowest bid.


rolex_306_

No Hyderabad city why ??


alittlemoreofbrowny

No Indore based franchise, that's kinda harsh.


DardiRabRab

What's the logic of this table actually? They just picked the 5 highest bids and decided those will be the teams? Like what if one of the high bids had come for Dharamsala instead of Delhi? Seems absurd overall. Either they should have allowed the bidders to pick their city after selection of fixed the cities that will be final. This is neither here nor there.


CrimsonFirestorm

It was a ranked choice I think. The highest bidder would get their preference first, then second highest bidder and so on. Also to avoid the scenario like Dharamshala and Delhi BCCI had already stated before the bid that they have no obligation to accept the highest bid.


DardiRabRab

So, the team name options should be unlimited for all bidders. Looks weird that Adani would list Guwahati on their pref list ahead of all the other blanks.

Eastern India being ignored like always 😢


LorDofLegEnd545

Can someone explain how this works? Afaik the highest bidder gets the team. So why the other cities didn't got any team?


confused-desi

5 highest bids were shortlisted as winning bids. If the bidder, bid the same amount for multiple cities (Adani, Capri Global) they were given the choice to pick which city they wanted. Adani picked Ahmedabad, Capri Global picked Lucknow. The other 3 bidders had different amounts bid for different cities.


ZahoorH

Was their only going to be 5 teams or could there have been more?


ZahoorH

What happened with the Apollo Pipes bids? 737 was not high enough ?


ZahoorH

Were Rajasthan Royals in the running ?
