Unhappy Simon Katich resigns as SRH assistant coach over baffling buys at IPL auction
Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad is once again in the news for all the wrong reasons after former Australian batter Simon Katich resigned from the post of assistant coach, reportedly being unhappy with some of the side's hefty auction buys. Katich, who along with West Indies legend Brian Lara and former India batter Hemang Badani, were added to the SRH coaching group headed by Tom Moody and Muttah Muralitharan, resigned immediately after the auction. The SRH management, headed by Kavya Maran, hasn't yet issued any public statement whether Katich's resignation has been accepted or if he will be requested to reconsider his decision. 'The Australian' reported that Katich's resignation was primarily due to the fact that the pre-auction strategy discussed wasn't followed at the two-day auction where SRH had some whopping big buys like Nicholas Pooran (Rs 10.75 crore), Washington Sundar (Rs 8.75 crore) and Rahul Tripathi (Rs 8.50 crore). Some of the SRH big buys have been baffling, although it's not always a player's quality but the auction dynamics that determine the final price of a player.
