MUMBAI: With the results of day one, Nitin Tomar had emerged with the highest bid of Rs 9.3 million in the PKL auctions.
It was a day when quite a few bidding records were broken. Manjeet Chillar was the most expensive player in PKL history for the better part of the day. But Tomar came towards the end of the day and swept away his Indian team mate’s price tag. That concluded the bidding for Category A Indian players.
Category B auctions today for Indian players also had many high bids, Suraj Desai went for Rs 5.25 million to Delhi, Jaipur Pink Panthers paid out Rs 5 million for Jaideep Singh and Telugu Titans bid Rs 4.9 million for Nilesh Salunke.
