NEW DELHI: Former India wicketkeeper-batter and current Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) mentor Dinesh Karthik opened up about the intense, high-stakes build-up to the IPL mini-auction, describing the experience as one of the most demanding yet enjoyable phases of his cricketing journey.
Speaking about the extensive behind-the-scenes planning, Karthik reiterated how the preparation alone could form a gripping series. In a video shared by RCB on X, he said, “If the world gets to see the whole footage of what all we speak and what all we discuss, they can do a mega serial, I feel. They can do a 10-part TV series on it.”
He detailed the exhaustive preparation that defined the days leading up to the auction, adding, “It was the most exhilarating 10 days prior to the auction, the way we prepped. I don’t think I’ve gone through an experience like that. I’ve played a lot of cricket, but to be in the boardroom discussing what it takes to make a team was the most challenging, most fun, engaging week, 10 days I’ve had because there was so much prep that went into it. Mo and Andy have a very detailed process that they go through.”
