New Delhi: Former Indian batsman and Mr. IPL Suresh Raina believes that wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant can get more than Rs 25 crore in the mega auction to be held in Jeddah. Raina feels that Pant has that ‘X factor’ which is going to create a competition for him among the teams.

Raina believes that this time the record may be broken. Raina, IPL expert on Geo Star, said, ‘Apart from batting and wicketkeeping, he also brings the X factor to the team. No owner or coach can ignore this. When asked whether Pant could be sold for more than Rs 25 crore, Raina said, ‘I think more than that. Punjab, Delhi, KKR and RCB have money. He may get Rs 25 crore to Rs 4-5 crore more in the auction.

Rishabh Pant is also an option for captaincy

Seeing Pant’s energy on the field and his rapport with the players, Raina, who has won the IPL four times with Chennai Super Kings, said, ‘He has stamina and has amazing rapport with the players. Everyone wants to play under his captaincy and this is what makes him special.

He said, ‘This auction is for three years. If you get Rishabh Pant for three years. Chennai does not have that much budget but RCB or KKR can buy him. If he goes to KKR, many fans will also join the team.
