IPL Auction

The Department of Ship Technology’s student association, SNAS, organized an electrifying IPL Auction event in the Seminar Hall, drawing enthusiastic participation from across CUSAT. Eight teams representing various departments stepped into the shoes of franchise owners, bringing strategy, excitement, and a healthy dose of friendly rivalry to the competition. The atmosphere was vibrant as students engaged in intense bidding wars, carefully planning their budget and picking players who could maximize their team’s overall performance.

Unlike a typical auction focused only on player popularity, this event introduced an analytical twist: the winning team was determined based on the Dream Points earned by the players they selected. This scoring system added depth to the activity, encouraging participants to think beyond star value and evaluate player consistency, form, and past performance. As bidding progressed, each team crafted a unique combination of batsmen, bowlers, and all-rounders, all hoping their choices would yield the highest points.

The event concluded with the announcement of the team whose squad secured the highest Dream Points, earning them the title of champions. The IPL Auction not only tested strategic thinking and teamwork but also created a lively, enjoyable learning experience. It successfully brought students together, blending sports enthusiasm with analytical fun.
