NEW DELHI: The German star was with his wife at home in Mannheim. "I was watching the auction and was really nervous, especially when my name wasn't called out. To make it more tense, there were a lot of players who went unsold," the 32-year-old said from Germany.
His turn finally arrived. But the famous drag-flicker again had to wait to know his fate. Only this time the wait was one of joy rather than apprehension as teams raised the auction paddle for him, trying to out-bid each other. In the end, Peillat was sold to the Hyderabad Toofans for ₹68 lakh to become the most expensive overseas HIL player.
