Dhoni Triggered an IPL Bidding War
Mahendra Singh Dhoni is an icon and it's not surprising that when the first Indian Premier League auction was held in 2008, every franchise would want to have the star cricketer in their team.
Former IPL auctioneer Richard Madley recalled the first bidding war he witnessed at an Indian Premier League auction when Dhoni was roped in by the Chennai Super Kings.
In a conversation with Ravichandran Ashwin on his YouTube channel, Madley spoke about how Dhoni triggered the auction's first bidding war.
