Reactions of the team-owners after the IPL Players' Auction concluded in Bangalore on Friday.

Gayatri Reddy of the Deccan Chargers: "Slightly disappointed (on missing out on Ravindra Jadeja) but it is Twenty20, so its allright.

Deccan Chargers coach Darren Lehmann on why they didn't buy VVS Laxman.

"VVS is such a great player not just for Hyderabad but also for India. We have moved on and we are looking at a younger brand of cricket."

On signing up Parthiv Patel:
"Parthiv is a fine young man and a fine cricketer. We are disappointed that we did not get Jadeja but we are glad that we got Parthiv. As for why we went for him, he is an international cricketer, he is a fine bloke. And as a wicket-keeper, he also adds balance. We are happy."
