The bids on Rishabh Pant could well soar like his audacious no-look six at Perth as he seems poised to become the highest paid player among the 577 who will go under the hammer at the two-day IPL mega auction starting here on Sunday.
There will be INR 641.5 crores cumulatively in the kitty of 10 teams with 204 possible slots to be filled, but one can be rest assured that all eyes will be trained on Pant's name when it comes up.
Punjab Kings, with INR 110.50 crore in their coffers, are ready to outbid the other franchises.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru, with INR 83 crore, can be another serious bidder, so can be Delhi Capitals, who have INR 73 crore and a Right To Match (RTM) card to get their skipper for past few seasons back.
