IPL auction: Kochi players top pruned list

IPL 2012 Auction
Brendon McCullum, VVS Laxman and Sreesanth are the most valued names among several former Kochi Tuskers Kerala players to have been added to a trimmed 144-man list for the upcoming IPL auction in Bangalore on February 4.
The IPL's Governing Council, after releasing a 183-man shortlist to the franchises earlier this month, had said that Kochi players would be added at a later date.

Laxman, the embattled Test batsman, discarded pace bowler Sreesanth and New Zealand wicketkeeper-batsman Brendon McCullum have fetched the highest reserve price of $400,000. The Sri Lankan pair of Mahela Jayawardene and Muttiah Muralitharan – who retired from international cricket after the 2011 World Cup – have been valued at $300,000 followed by RP Singh and Parthiv Patel ($200,000) and Ravindra Jadeja, Vinay Kumar, Ramesh Powar and VRV Singh ($100,000).
Each of these players played for Kochi in IPL-4 before the franchise was terminated by the IPL's Governing Council.
"The shortlist comprises some outstanding cricket talent. Given that it was prepared on the basis of the feedback of the franchises themselves, the stage is set for an exciting and eventful Player Auction, this Saturday," Rajeev Shukla, the IPL chairman, said on the list announced.
There are several new additions to the list, which did not feature on the initial 183-player list. Those to fetch reserve prices of $200,000 are discarded Australian allrounder Steven Smith, former Australia bastman Brad Hodge, England's Ian Bell and Owais Shah and former South African allrounder Nicky Boje.
New Zealand allrounder Jacob Oram, South African wicketkeeper Mark Boucher and allrounder Ryan McLaren, Sri Lankan fast bowler Dilhara Fernando, Zimbabwean spinner Ray Price and uncapped Australian pace bowler James Faulkner have been bracketed at $100,000. One rung lower, at $50,000, are Bangladesh opener Tamim Iqbal, the South African fast-bowling pair of Johan van der Wath and Marchant de Lange and South Australia's Michael Klinger.
Notable among those players to have been dropped are South Africa's Jacques Rudolph and Justing Ontong, Sri Lanka's Dhammika Prasad and Suranga Lakmal, New Zealanders Jamie How and Kane Williamson, Australia's Usman Khawaja, West Indies' Carlton Baugh and Zimbabweans Tatenda Taibu, Elton Chigumbura, Stuart Matsikenyeri, Vusi Sibanda and Kyle Jarvis.
