According to TOI, Nicholas Pooran may end up being one of the best paid retained players in IPL history. IPL sources claim that Pooran and the Lucknow Super Giants have reached an arrangement whereby the hard-hitting Trinidadian might receive more than Rs 20 crore from the team.
But captaincy is not indicated by this arrangement. In order to determine their resources, the franchise will wait for the auction. If DC doesn’t keep Rishabh Pant, LSG is eager to make a big move for him, it has been learned.
On October 23, TOI revealed that Pooran will be LSG’s top retainer, followed by Mayank Yadav and Ravi Bishnoi. For the retentions, LSG is anticipated to spend about Rs 50 crore.”It’s possible that Lucknow may spend Rs 40 crore to keep capped and foreign stars like Bishnoi, Mayank, and Pooran. According to sources, uncapped players like Mohsin Khan and Ayush Badoni will receive their compensation in accordance with their agreements with the team.Mitchell Starc became the most expensive player at last year’s mini IPL auction when KKR paid Rs 24.75 crore for him. That being said, no player has ever been signed for Rs 20 crore.
