Hyderabad team lauds Laxman’s touching gesture

Mumbai, pti: Stylish batsman VVS Laxman put his team interest before self after getting the assurance that he would lead the Hyderabad franchise in the Indian Premier League even as he declined to become an icon player in the Indian Premier League. “Laxman has been named the captain of the Hyderabad team. He put the team interest before his own and gave away the icon status (which the franchise owners had demanded from the IPL Governing Council) as he wanted Hyderabad to have a larger budget (for buying players). He showed fine sportsman’s spirit,” said PK Iyer, the managing director of franchise owners Deccan Chronicle, after buying the veteran cricketer for USD 375,000. Each icon player will get 115 per cent of the highest paid player of that franchise. The Hyderabad franchise too wanted Laxman as their icon player before withdrawing the demand a day before the players’ auction held here.
