Top names like Yuvraj Singh, Gautam Gambhir, Brendon McCullum and Mitchell Starc will be up for grabs with the player auction for the 12th edition of the Indian Premier League being held in Jaipur on December 18. A maximum of 70 slots are available to be filled, with 50 of those being for Indian players.
Kings XI Punjab have the maximum budget available for the auction, with Rs. 36.20 crores in their purse. They released 11 players from their squad for the 2018 season, and have 15 slots to fill. Chennai Super Kings, the defending champions, have the least budget of Rs. 8.4 crores having released just two players from their winning squad.
Meanwhile Chennai Super King’s Official twitter account posted a tweet hinting Yuvraj singh to be featured in yellow jersey for coming IPL season. The tweet included a GIF image of epic cult classic “Thalapathy” movie’s popular friendship song “Kaatukuyilu” in which Tamil Superstar Rajinikanth and Malayalam Superstar Mammooty would shake their leg together.
The thing which made sure that they are also hoping the entry of Yuvi into the team is nothing but their caption. It read as “Now on repeat mode hoping for the best! If YOU know what WE mean! #PrideOf19 #WhistlePodu”
If you could able to read those words which are written in capital letters alone, you would have came to an conclusion what that GIF image stand for.
Yes, they are comparing Rajinikanth and Mammooty to MS Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh respectively. Check out their tweet here :
