IPL 2022: Mitchell Starc reveals he pulled out of auction at the last minute - Was a click of a button away

India Today  

Australia fast bowler Mitchell Starc said he was a button's click away from entering the Indian Premier League 2022 auction but he decided not to do so in a bid to spend more time with his family and avoid another length stay in bio-bubbles. Mitchell Starc, who won the Australian Men's Cricket of the Year Award earlier this month, said the decision to skip IPL once again was taken, keeping in mind the opportunity to spend time with his wife and Australia cricketer Alyssa Healy and his family. "I was a click of the button away from entering the auction but personally didn't want to spend 22 more weeks in a bubble," Starc said. The mega auction of IPL 2022 will be held on February 12 and 13 while the 10-team season will get underway in the last week of March, according to BCCI secretary Jay Shah.
