A few years ago, when the news of a Kabbadi League emerged, there were several questions raised about it. In a country when cricket is adored and worshipped, people were very sceptical about the success of this league. But, the Indian audience proved everyone wrong and the Kabbadi League has garnered some great viewership.

The auction for the league is year was very heartening to see. Raider Monu Goyat was sold to the Haryana Steelers at a mammoth price of INR 1.51 crores. This price point was much higher than what it was for many famous and renowned cricketers from around the globe in the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/category/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>IPL</strong></a> auction. It is great to see Kabbadi as a sport grow and evolve into something big.

Here are the five big IPL guns who got lesser bids than Monu Goyat&#8217;s 1.51 crores:

The <strong>England</strong> opener, Jason Roy is known for his explosive batting. He has the ability to strike the ball long and hard and can tend to be absolutely brutal. This limited-overs specialist debuted in the IPL in the 10th season for Gujarat Lions. He has played 3 games back then and managed to create a very little impact.

However, the 27-year-old batsman was picked by the Delhi Daredevils this season. He was expected to play a big role but wasn&#8217;t as successful. Roy has played 5 games this year and has scored 120 runs. But, out of these 120, 91 came in a single innings which proved to be a match-winning one. Roy was sold for INR 1.50 crores this year, 1 lakh less than Monu Goyat.<br>

(Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Tim Southee solved a lot of problems for<strong> RCB</strong> this year ever since he was picked in the XI. He bowled well at the top and controlled the run flow in the death overs. He is one of the best fast bowlers coming from New Zealand and is known for his pinpoint accuracy.

Southee too was just picked for INR 1 crore this season, more the INR 50 lakhs less than Monu Goyat. He has picked 5 wickets in the 8 games that he has played this season. Also, he played a very useful cameo of 36 for his team in one of the games when his team was in trouble.

(Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Sam Billings first grabbed everyone&#8217;s attention while playing for the Delhi Daredevils. The wicket-keeper batsman from England is a very sweet timer of the cricket ball. Furthermore, despite him being a keeper, Billings is a lightning-quick fielder and has a very powerful arm.

Although his numbers don&#8217;t speak much, he has played quite a vital role for CSK. His innings against KKR was an absolute gem when he took his team home from the verges of a defeat. Billings has scored 56 in that game at a strike rate of over 200 which is also his highest score in the IPL. In 10 games this year, he has scored 108 runs batting down the order at a strike rate of about 140.

(Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Manan Vohra had a great IPL in 2017. He played some great knocks and scored his runs at a fair clip. His 95 against Sunrisers Hyderabad that came in a losing cause will still disappoint many <strong>KXIP</strong> fans. This year, he was bought by the RCB at the IPL auction.

However, due to the dynamics of the side, he couldn&#8217;t get a lot of games for the side. He just played 4 games in the season and didn&#8217;t look to be in great form. Vohra has scored 55 runs in all these games and his strike rate also took a dip resulting in him being benched. Despite being a great talent, he didn&#8217;t manage to fetch a great amount at the auction.

JP Duminy has been the mainstays of the South African batting line-up for quite some time now. Although he doesn&#8217;t seem to be as effective as he was earlier, he still gives you a great run for the money. Moreover, he performed really well in the recently concluded PSL and gives the captain a few good overs in the middle.

Duminy was bought by the Mumbai Indians this season. But, he was somewhat under-utilised and was roped into the XI only after <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/ipl-2018-3-players-mi-should-have-bought-via-rtm-instead-of-kieron-pollard/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Kieron Pollard</strong></a> failed several times. He batted way down the order to his liking and didn&#8217;t find any kind of success this season. He has scored 36 runs in the six games played this season and was never dismissed. But, his strike rate of 90 was very disappointing.
