    Frontier Economics Bulletin Water Energy Retailing Transport Financial services Healthcare Telecoms Media Post Competition policy Policy analysis and design Regulation Strategy Contract design and evaluation Dispute support services Æ Market design and auctions JUNE 2008 How’s that? WINNERS AND LOSERS IN THE INDIAN CRICKET AUCTIONS The Indian Premier League’s Twenty20 competition has taken the cricket world by storm. The players, auctioned to the business and media groups granted franchises by the IPL, are getting $50,000 to $1.5m for six weeks’ play. Our analysis suggests the process has resulted in both bargains and bonanzas: that (apart from the superstars) batsmen have done relatively poorly, while the youngest Indian cricketers have done exceptionally well; and that some of England’s cricketers may have earned six-figure sums had they participated. The IPL – a new league formed to play Twenty20 cricket in India – has had a bigger impact on cricket power structures and player salaries than anything since the Packer revolution in the late 1970s. Twenty20 cricket is a recently introduced, frenetic and exciting variant. A complete game takes about three hours, compared with the five days for traditional Test matches, or the full single day for one-day internationals (ODIs). Twenty20 cricket rewards explosive power and quick thinking; Test cricket rewards patience, discipline and concentration. Æ 2 Frontier Economics | June 2008 RULES OF THE GAME In January, the IPL auctioned eight team-owning franchises to business and media groups, who paid US$67m-US$112m for the privilege. However, media rights, to be shared across the franchisees, have been sold for over $1bn.

(Photo: BCCI) Mumbai: India's limited-overs captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni today emerged as the top draw in the IPL draft with the Sanjeev Goenka-owned New Rising franchise Pune opting to pick him first for the stipulated price of Rs 12.5 crore here. Dhoni's India teammate Suresh Raina was the first preference for the other new team Rajkot, which is owned by Kehav Bansal Intex Mobiles. He will also get an identical Rs 12.5 crore by virtue of being the first player selected by the franchise. "Excited to play for the beautiful vibrant city- Rajkot in @IPL. Looking forward to have new teammates and support from the people of Gujarat," Raina tweeted after the draft. In-form Indian batsman Ajinkya Rahane was the second choice for Pune, while Rajkot opted for Ravindra Jadeja in the same position. Both players will be entitled to a purse of Rs 9.5 crore per year. The draft process was necessitated following the suspension of Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals [11] from the IPL for two years in the wake of the 2013 spot-fixing and betting scandal.
