IPL 2022 | Twitter reacts as Ravichandran Ashwin and Jos Buttler to play for Rajasthan Royals

The mega auction for IPL 2022 has commenced and it will be held for two days in Bangalore. Franchises have picked several players so far in the auction and are looking forward to build the core for their teams. Ishan Kishan has been the most expensive pick so far with Mumbai Indians paying Rs 15.25 crore for his services.Ā
For Rajasthan Royals, Ravichandran Ashwin was their first buy of the day for Rs 5 Crores. With his inclusion in the squad, the fans will see him and Jos Buttler playing in the same team after clashing in 2019 over a āMankadā dismissal.
