Former India player Kris Srikkanth hilariously said that Australian all-rounder Cameron Green should already be planning big on spending his money after the upcoming IPL 2026 auction as well. Srikkanth’s comments came after the recent withdrawals and retirements of Andre Russell, Glenn Maxwell, Faf du Plessis, and Moen Ali from the IPL as well.
Reacting to the recent IPL withdrawals, Srikkanth said on his YouTube channel, “Because of all this, Cameron Green has already plotted for a massive area in Sydney. He’s going to be the highest bidder, there is no one else there. Green must be plotting how much land to buy near a beach in Sydney or Melbourne and in Perth if he goes out with his family. The bidding war will go on and on for him. Venkatesh Iyer will probably do well again at the auction. Because he is the only semi-all-rounder from India. Cameron Green is the only authentic all-rounder.”
However, Kris Srikkanth further said that Faf du Plessis, Moeen Ali, and Mohit Sharma feared going unsold in the auction, which forced them to skip or retire from the league as well.
“They are also fearful of what happens if no one picks them in the IPL auction. Not Russell and Maxwell, they would have got picked up. But Moeen Ali, Faf du Plessis and Mohit Sharma, they may have not been picked up in auction also. So they don’t want to go through that embarrassment of being unsold,” Kris Srikkanth concluded.
