In a deal involving both players and cash, Delhi Daredevils brought in local player Dhawan (INR 5.2 crore, $ 812,000) from Sunrisers Hyderabad and in return gave them allrounder Shankar (INR 3.2 crore, $ 500,000), under-19 batsman Abhishek Sharma (INR 55 lakh, $ 85,000), who impressed with an innings of 46* off 19 balls last season, and left-arm spinner Shahbaz Nadeem (INR 3.2 crore, $ 500,000).

Since the combined value of those players was more than Dhawan’s, SRH had to pay Daredevils an extra INR 1.75 crore (273,000). Dhawan has been released by Sunrisers after a six-year stint with the team as he was unhappy with his auction price.
