“Picasso Of It”, Twitter Heaps Praise On Kiran Kumar Grandhi For His Performance At The Delhi Capitals Auction Table

Delhi Capitals were one of the teams that did well on Day 1 of the IPL 2022 Mega-Auctions. Apart from their strategies to hinder the progress of other franchises, Delhi Capitals also built a good core for their own squad. Kiran Kumar Grandhi was the man who helped DC achieve it at the auction table. After his terrific show for Delhi Capitals, Twitter heaps praise on Kiran Kumar Grandhi for his performance on Day 1.

Delhi Capitals had a fine outing on Day 1 of IPL 2022 Mega-Auctions

The CEO, MD & Director at GMR Infrastructure, Kiran Kumar Grandhi is a regular at the auctions for Delhi Capitals. In recent seasons, he has been a part of the overall effort by the management to construct a good squad for the franchise. For IPL 2022, as well, the group has delivered a similar result.

Along with retaining a solid core, DC made some smart signings at the auction. The hiring of David Warner tops this list. They got him for just INR 6.25 Cr and thereby have set up a solid opening combination with Prithvi Shaw. The franchise also made some other impressive signings in the form of KS Bharat, Kuldeep Yadav, Sarfraz Khan, Mitchell Marsh and Mustafizur Rahman. They spent big on Shardul Thakur but he was needed for the position.

Apart from doing well for themselves, the auction group raised the bids for other players. While a few of them might have not been intentional, this act of theirs helped them in the long run of Day 1 of the event.

Twitter heaps praise on Kiran Kumar Grandhi

Kiran has been doing a good job at the auctions for a while now. Even on Day 1 of the Mega-Auctions, he looked to be in good form. Of course, he would have got a lot of inputs from the team but he seemed calm and relaxed about the proceedings. This helped the franchise a great deal. We take a look at appreciation for him on Twitter:

For me, the Winner of this Auction was the CEO of GMR & DC. That guy played it like a pro

Randomly used to bid for players and increase their value. Depleted the purse of other teams big time. And got whoever he wanted for relative steals

He played almost everyone in that room
