CRICKETERS ON SALE

In the history of cricket,the players were auctioned like furniture , antiques and art pieces in a 5 star auction house in Mumbai.

Indian Premier League rained dollars on the players and the corporate houses and the bollywood actors bought the players like slaves were bought in ancient times bidding the highest price for each player.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni the captian of T20 Indian Team was sold out at the highest price of Rs 6 crores to Chennai Team.

Andrew Symonds of Australria was bought at Rs 5.4 crores by Hyderabad Team.

Ishant Sharma the upcoming pace bowler of India was the highest bowler sold out at 3.8 crores.

The Top Five Paid Players
M S DHONI INDIA 6.0 CRORES.
A SIMMONDS AUSTRALIA 5.4 CRORES.
S TENDULKAR INDIA 4.5 CRORES.
S GANGULY INDIA 4.4 CRORES.
YUVRAJ SINGH INDIA 4.3 CRORES.

Now cricket is on the way to commercialisation with big corporates houses and bollywood actors with their moneypower will kill the real spirit of the game.

You cannot rule out the possibility of money of Dawoods and other underworld dons pumping money into IPL via big corporates and spoiling the gentle mans game forever.
