The seventh edition of IPL 2014 started with fresh round of bidding for all the players. 24 players remained retained by the 8 franchise, out of which Delhi Daredevils did not retain any player. The bidding saw even uncapped players being on bid list for the first time. As a result more than 350 players from across the world were on the bidding table. Surprisingly, Yuvraj Singh was the biggest earner, there were cases like Saurabh Tiwary who saw a stark downfall in demand, and there were players like Karn Sharma who made a fortune. The bidding was very strategic and performance based. Here is the list of all the players who earned from Rs 10 lacs to 12.5 crorers (in Indian currency).
