Auction trend is clear 📉
Franchises are not really interested in all-rounders this time.
Look at the list 👇
Deepak Hooda – UNSOLD
Liam Livingstone – UNSOLD
Rachin Ravindra – UNSOLD
Gus Atkinson – UNSOLD
Wiaan Mulder – UNSOLD
Only role-specific fits get picked:
Venkatesh Iyer → ₹7 Cr (RCB) – Indian top-order bowling option

Clear pattern 👀
👉 Specialists over multi-skill players
