News India Live, Digital Desk: Nothing can be said as to what will happen in the world of cricket and IPL. Now the IPL 2026 auction is round the corner and the buzz regarding it is intense. But meanwhile, such a news has come about Australia’s star player Cameron Green, which you will either laugh or be surprised to hear. The matter is that Cameron Green’s name was put in the auction list as a ‘batsman’, whereas the world knows that he is a strong ‘all-rounder’. When this news spread, Green himself had to come forward and give clarification. “Hey brother! I can bowl.” It so happened that when players were being registered for the auction, only the category ‘batsman’ was found written in front of Green’s name. This left the franchises (IPL Teams) thinking. Everyone thought that perhaps his old back injury had not yet healed and he would only bat in IPL 2026. And you know, in IPL there is a huge difference in the prices of ‘only batsman’ and ‘all-rounder’. To remove this confusion, Cameron Green himself took the lead. He said in clear words, “I am fully ready to bowl in IPL 2026.” Blame the manager. Now the question was that if he is fit, then why was his name given as ‘batsman’? Green made a very interesting revelation on this. He told that this mistake was not made by him but by his manager. Green says that while filling the form, his manager probably accidentally ticked the box of ‘batsman’ instead of ‘all-rounder’ or chose the wrong category. This was a human error, but it could have affected their ‘market value’. Well, Green has made it clear in time that his recovery is going very well and he is ready to rock with both ball and bat. Changed strategy for the franchise. This statement by Green must have given IPL teams sleepless nights (in a good way!). If he had come only as a batsman, perhaps teams would have bid less on him. But now that it is known that he is fit to bowl even 4 overs, there is sure to be a lot of money in his name in the auction. A foreign fast bowler who can also hit long hits is in demand like gold in IPL.
