India and Baroda all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja on Saturday expectedly turned out to be the biggest draw for the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises, but it was the India Cements owned Chennai Super Kings that succeeded in bagging him for a whopping two million dollars (approximately Rs.9.72 crore) in the players' auction for the fifth edition of the Indian Premier League here.
The 23-year-old, whose base price was 100,000 dollars, went to Chennai after the tie-breaker clause was invoked when two teams-CSK and Deccan Chargers-bid the maximum (USD two million) for the Saurashtra player.
