This will be a course correction for some teams, ”It does there is a blueprint front of us when we look at the most successful franchises – you know that they have followed a similar kind of script that groom cricketers and then you have seen teams like Delhi Capitals that has found a new formula. So, it’s quite interesting and intriguing because these big auctions as you know, they are make or break because if you don’t make it here, it is very difficult to do course correction for the next three years.”
