Virat Kohli Recalls 'Absolutely Crazy' Time When IPL 2008 Draft Was Picked

By IANS News February 02, 2022 • 10:39 AM View: 2138

Former India skipper Virat Kohli has revealed that he simply could not fathom the amount he got in the Indian Premier League (IPL) draft in 2008 where he was picked by the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).

Unlike the present scenario where Under-19 cricketers are allowed to take part in IPL auction, earlier uncapped players were used to get picked via drafts. As per the earlier IPL draft policy, every franchise had the option of picking two U-19 players and there was a salary cap set for them.
