Ishant bought by Pune Supergiants for Rs. 3.8 crore

February 06, 2016 09:46

India fast bowler Ishant Sharma is the third player up for grabs.

Kings XI Punjab make the opening bid at the base price of Rs. 2 crore but no other franchises seem to show any interest.

Pune Supergiants enter the bidding but Preity Zinta seems determined to bolster her bowling with the addition of Ishant. The bid rises to 3 crore as both teams are not holding back.

The bidding frenzy continues as the price goes up to Rs. 3.8 crore before Punjab decide to back out.

A good amount for a player who has failed to make it to the Indian T20 squad for the World T20.
