00:00Well, so far so good. I mean, we had certain targets coming into the auction, as every
00:04team does. You know, Arshdeep is obviously the first one out. He's been in our franchise
00:09for a number of years. I was really keen to get him back. Left-arm fast bowler, obviously
00:14with a great skill set with the new ball and the old ball. And, you know, one of India's
00:18leading wicket-takers in T20 cricket. So he was a perfect fit for us to come back into
00:23the Punjab Kings. Sreyas Iyer was the next one up. I think we knew with him and Pant
00:28and KL Rule, those guys in the auction, that they were going to attract big money. I wanted
00:33to be able to work with him. I've worked with him before. He's a great guy. He's a great
00:37player. He'll be a great leader for our team if we decide to go that way, which I'm pretty
00:41sure we probably will. And obviously, he was the championship winning captain last year.
00:46So there's lots of great things about him bringing him to Punjab. And then Yuzhi, highest
00:52quality spinner in the auction, basically. So we wanted to fill certain gaps with the
00:56best players we possibly could. And yes, we spent a bit of money to get there, but
00:59what we're trying to do is rebuild this franchise basically from the ground up. And you can't
01:04do that without the best players. So we felt so far that the auction's gone exactly the
01:08way we wanted. We've got a bit of work to do in the back half this afternoon, but that's
01:12the fun of it. So we'll see how we go.
