The first day of the IPL auction saw some big names making bagful of money, some big names falling by the wayside and some uncapped players mining gold.

As the IPL auction enters the second day on Sunday (January 28), the interesting points will be that whether some those big players like Chris Gayle, Lasith Malinga, Hashim Amla or M Vijay find some takers or will they be banished to the memory fields of the IPL.

If not it will be a sad moment to see Gayle, the highest sixer hitter in the IPL, and Malinga, the highest wicket taker in the IPL, walking away without one final flourish.

There are some more exciting names in the pool - both in capped and uncapped sections - and the franchises may go after them.

But you will not see deals running into the high crores because the franchises have limited purse after the big spending the previous day. The franchises will also try to fill the remaining blanks in the team positions, buying players suited to their needs from the remaining available pool.
