TG20 Auction Shock: CV Milind Emerges as Surprise Star in TG20 League Auction Ahead of Mohammed Siraj

TG20 Auction Shock: The player auction for the inaugural TG20 League delivered several unexpected moments, with established stars and emerging talents attracting significant attention from franchise owners. While India batter Tilak Varma secured the highest bid of the auction, another name that generated considerable discussion was CV Milind, who emerged as the second most expensive player.

CV Milind was picked up by Khammam Aces for Rs 17 lakh, placing him ahead of Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj, who was bought by Warangal Warriors for Rs 14 lakh. The result surprised many cricket followers, given Siraj’s international reputation and recent performances for Team India.

Tilak Varma dominated the auction by securing a record bid of Rs 33 lakh from Medak Falcons. His acquisition underlined his growing stature in domestic and international cricket and made him the most sought after player in the tournament.

Adding another interesting angle to the story, CV Milind is the son of Telangana Director General of Police CV Anand. The senior police officer himself has a strong cricketing background and represented India at the Under 19 level during a tour of England. Before joining the Indian Police Service, CV Anand was also known for academic excellence, earning a gold medal in Economics and clearing the Civil Services Examination in his first attempt.

The TG20 League, being organized by the Hyderabad Cricket Association on the lines of franchise based T20 tournaments, is scheduled to be held from June 21 to July 11. Eight franchises participated in the auction and assembled their squads for the competition.
