As the IPL Auction 2022 gets underway at Bengaluru on February 12, two new franchises will be dipping into their deep pockets to create teams to add to the mix. The Ahmedabad franchise, just recently named the Gujarat Titans, have already put in big bucks for Hardik Pandya, which is good news for the cricketer, since he has been struggling to recover his place in the Indian team and this boost will work wonders on that front as well. Gujarat Titans have sensationally also put up an equal amount for Rashid Khan, making this a rather intriguing move for the Afghan leggie, one that could have major impact on the tournament.
