From Hooda-Krunal to Ashwin-Buttler, IPL mega auction has turned foes into teammates
Deepak Hooda was left "demoralised, depressed and under pressure" after a well documented spat with his Baroda state team captain, Krunal Pandya. England's swashbuckling batter Jos Buttler and India's premier spinner Ravichandran Ashwin had not seen eye to eye for a long time owing to a controversial run out episode during the 2019 edition of the lucrative league. However, the 2022 IPL mega auction, besides forcing the 10 franchises to break the banks in order to get their favourite players, has done another thing: turn these foes into teammates.
