The Ballari Tuskers, having retained CM Gautam and Devdutt Paddikal signed CA Karthik for their costliest purchase of the day at ₹4.70 lakh.
Naveen MG's fine show from a title-winning campaign of KPL 2018 warranted his place back in the Bijapur Bulls setup as the side exercised their RTM card on the all-rounder. Hubli Tigers too retained faith in opener Mohammed Taha as they re-signed him for ₹5.7 lakh.
Among other notable purchases, Abrar Kazi was the biggest winner as he demanded a sum of ₹4.60 lakh from the Ballari Tuskers, 23 times his base price while Ritesh Bhatkal's consistent rise in the local circuit saw him pocket a ₹3.05 lakh worth contract with the Belagavi Panthers.
