Miss: Joe Root
Joe Root went under the hammer for the first time in IPL auctions, since making his international debut in 2012, but could not find any takers at a base price of INR 2 crore.
The 27-year-old, who was amongst the 16 marquee players, has never played in an overseas Twenty20 league and his experience in the shortest format of the game is restricted to England and Yorkshire.
To keep up with the constantly evolving world of T20 cricket, the England Test skipper hoped to make his IPL debut this year as has only played five Natwest Blast matches since 2012.
The number 9 batsman on ICC T20I Rankings, Root has amassed 1325 from 57 T20 matches at a strike rate of 125.59.
