Last year, there was hardly any cricket due to the pandemic but when it resumed, it resumed with full power. Some amazing back-to-back series and IPL later, we have another edition of the T20 tournament coming up because in 2021 it’s going to be played as per schedule.
Now, if IPL is happening, it will be preceded by the auction, which is happening today. And the highlights so far are:
1. South Africa’s Chris Morris becoming the highest-paid cricketer in the history of the cometition.
