'IPL Auctions Are Like A Game, But It Gets Real When You're Signed': Mark Wood After Getting Picked By LSG
England pacer Mark Wood feels that getting a contract for the Indian Premier League (IPL) is akin to playing a computer game. Wood, who withdrew from the auction in the last season to spend time with his family, was picked for INR 7.5 crores by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) edging competition from Delhi Capitals (DC) and Mumbai Indians (MI) in the IPL Mega Auction last week.
"I remember Sarah shouting -- but also whispering -- 'Get back here now,' as I was putting some dishes in the sink. After a quiet start to the bidding, suddenly it moved fast and the numbers went up. As soon as the final amount was confirmed Sarah asked what it was in pounds -- I might have to freeze all our accounts so it doesn't disappear," Wood was quoted as saying by The Guardian.
