2nd IPL auction today

CRIClNFO, undated
The second Indian Premier League (IPL) auction takes place in Mumbai on Tuesday, with the Rajasthan Royals best placed to
make the most of the situation. Eighteen players are up for grabs, with 16 Under-19 players being decided by draft pick.
Jaipur have 2.05 million dollars of unspent money, the most among the franchises, and are looking to sign up a couple of Australians, including Shane Watson and James Hopes. Most of the other franchises are focussing on picking up U-19
players on the auction date.
"We approached the first auction in a very careful manner. We know the players we want and now we will pick them," Fraser Castellino, the Royals' CEO, told Cricinfo. Shane Warne's presence, as captain-cum-coach, could prompt them to sign his Hampshire teammate Watson.
The approximate amounts remaining with the other franchises are: Bangalore 374,000 dollars; Chennai 23,750 dollars; Delhi 71,250 dollars; Hyderabad 262,500 dollars; Kolkata 107,500 dollars; Mohali 292,250 dollars; and Mumbai 53,750 dollars. It was reported that Jaipur were fined for underbidding in the first auction -they were required to spend 3.3 million dollars but spent only 2.9 million dollars and were reportedly asked to pay the difference as penalty -- but Fraser said that they have not paid any penalty so far.
Bangalore will focus on boosting their batting strength and will be looking to pick up at least one batsman during the auction.
The Hyderabad franchise, which recently signed up former Indian allrounder Sanjay Bangar, are not seriously looking to pick up anyone here. "We will be present in the auction but as of now it's unlikely we will pick anybody," a source said.
The Chennai and Mumbai outfits do not have much money with them and are looking to focus on the U-19 players in this auction. "We don’t have any money left to buy any big player," a representative of the Chennai franchise said. "And wc have quite a few foreign players already in our squad and only four can play can anyway. So we ll go after the U 19 players."
The Kolkata franchise's interest or lack of it - in the auction can be gauged from the fact that they are unveiling their team in Kolkata around the same time the auction will be held in Mumbai.

The Mohali coach Tom Moody was cautious ahead of the auction. "There are only a few [franchises] that have got a few pennies left in the bank so we will see what happens," Moody toldAFP.
Some of the franchises have made signings since the auction on February 20; these are largely junior players and those from the catchment areas.
