New Delhi: The auctions for the Indian Premier League (IPL) have begun in the ballroom of the Oberoi Hilton in Mumbai.


The Chennai team paid the highest amount for Mahendra Singh Dhoni in the first round. Dhoni was bought for Rs 6 crore ($1.5 million) and he will be joined in the Chennai team by Sri Lanka’s spin whiz Muttiah Muralitharan who was bought for Rs 2.4 crore ($600,000).


Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne, who retired from international cricket early last year, was bought by Jaipur at Rs 1.8 crore ($4,50,000) while Adam Gilchrist was bought by Hyderbad for Rs 2.8 crore ($700,000)


Controversial Pakistani pace bowler Shoaib Akhtar will join Shah Rukh Khan’s Kolkata team for Rs 1.82 crore ($455,000).


The first round auctions saw the 'Marquee Players' being put up for sale. The Mumbai, Bangalore and Delhi teams did not take part in the first round.

A total of 78 players are up for grabs and they will be bought by eight franchises over the next 11 hours. Around Rs 160 crore ($40million) is at stake during the auctions.


But in a big blow to the IPL, Australia's Test and One-Day skipper Ricky Ponting, Andrew Symonds, Brett Lee and Michael Hussey will not be playing in the IPL in 2008 and hence they won't be auctioned.


Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid have already reached the for their team's bid


Each of the eight franchisees of the IPL will be allowed to spend a minimum of Rs 132 crore ($3.3 million) but not more than Rs 200 crore ($5 million) during the auctions.

Chennai bags Dhoni for Rs 6 cr, SRK wins Shoaib
