Speaking to IANS, he said, "We have brought some of the best young Indian talent into our group, which is very exciting. So, our scouts have done a great job and worked really hard and well to make sure that the auctions go exactly how we wanted them to."
PBKS get five Aussie players
Ponting and PBKS also went for five Australian players, in the guise of Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Josh Inglis, Aaron Hardie and Xavier Bartlett. Ponting remarked, "We have (a few Australians) and I’ll probably get some criticism. I think we have got five Aussies out of our complement of eight overseas. But when you look at the slots that we needed, the players that we have got fitted into those roles perfectly."
"To have Marcus Stoinis and Glenn Maxwell back to Kings is huge as they have both played here in the past. A couple of new guys, including Xavier Bartlett, Aaron Hardie, and Josh Inglis, are coming into the IPL for the first time, which is also really exciting for us," he added.
PBKS's most expensive purchase was Shreyas Iyer, who cost ₹26.75 crores, followed by spinner Yuzvendra Chahal ( ₹18 crore.) Meanwhile, Arshdeep rejoined via RTM for ₹18 crore. The franchise also welcomed Afghan all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai for ₹2.40 crore and New Zealand veteran pacer Lockie Ferguson for ₹2 crore.
