It is noteworthy that even though Thomas Jack Dreka lacks international experience, this right-arm bowler has been a part of the ILT20 franchise MI Emirates, owned by Mumbai Indians. This is probably the reason why he has registered himself for the IPL mega auction. In such a situation, it will be very interesting to see whether the Mumbai Indians team bids for his name even on a platform like IPL or not.
If we talk about Mumbai Indians franchise, they have retained five of their players before the mega auction. MI has retained Jasprit Bumrah for 18 crores. Whereas Suryakumar Yadav and Hardika Pandya have been retained for Rs 16.35 crore. Apart from this, they have retained Rohit Sharma for Rs 16.30 crore and Tilak Verma for Rs 8 crore. Overall, now the Mumbai Indians franchise will be seen on the auction table with a purse of Rs 45 crore. In such a situation, it will be very interesting to see which players she targets on the auction table.
