Kent captain Rob Key misses out in Indian Premier League auction
Comments |
Kent skipper Rob Key will be with the county at the start of the
season after being snubbed in Tuesday's Indian Premier League
auction.
Key would have missed the start of the county season had he been
bought by one of the eight franchises.
But the Kent captain, who was on offer at $100,000, was among
the 56 unsuccessful players in the list of 67 available
players.
Key was one of eight Englishmen included on the list for the
auction in Mumbai ahead of the tournament, which gets underway in
March.
Had he been selected, he could have missed Kent’s LV County
Championship opener against Nottinghamshire on April 15, the home
clash against Yorkshire in the same competition on April 21 and the
ECB 40 League match against Warwickshire on April 25.
