India opener Shikhar Dhawan was the first player bought at the auction, by Sunrisers, his old franchise using a RTM to snap him up after extensive bidding. They ended relatively sedately with Indian offie R Ashwin looking as their likely captain. While England skipper Joe Root (R1.5 cr base price) and West Indian big-hitter Chris Gayle (R2 cr base price) went unsold, Indian stars like Harbhajan Singh and Yuvraj Singh were bought at their base price of R2 crore by Chennai Super Kings and Kings XI Punjab respectively.

Rahul was bought for $1.7 million by Kings XI Punjab, which also used RTM to retain South Africa's David Miller ($468,000) and bought Australia ODI opener Aaron Finch ($968,000).

In short, Day 1 ended like a roller-coaster ride, leaving with it the promise of Day 2 following on the same lines. Sanju Samson will also return to the franchise in which he first starred.
