IPL auction, according to franchise owner Sanjiv Goenka and head coach Andy Flower. The KL Rahul-led Lucknow had a very good first day at the IPL auction, probably the best among all franchises, and followed it up on Sunday with the handy Rs 2 crore purchase of pacer Dushmantha Chameera and opener Evin Lewis. There were some other useful buys like spin-bowling allrounder K Gowtham. IPL AUCTION: AS IT HAPPENED"We are very happy. I'm glad we seem to have a well-considered, versatile squad. We wanted to have a lot of multi-skilled, multi-dimensional players and some backup options and we could pull it off," RPSG Group chairman and franchise owner Sanjiv Goenka told TOI. "Even though we had all plans in place, there was a lot of thinking on our feet involved. We got a great opener in Quinton (de Kock). We have a very good allrounder in Jason Holder. In Rahul and Manish Pandey we have two solid Indian batsmen."
