IPL 2018: Preity Zinta leads the charge; see full Kings XI Punjab squad

The co-owner of Kings XI Punjab, Preity Zinta, seemed very aggressive during the two-day mega auction event of the Indian Premier League (IPL). With the way she was bidding, it seemed as if she wanted every single cricketer from across the globe in her team.

The first player that Punjab brought in its camp was none other Indian spin wizard R Ashwin for a whopping Rs 7.2 crore. After snatching R Ashwin from Chennai Super Kings, Preity Zinta bought Indian opener KL Rahul for the whooping amount of Rs 11 crores.

Karun Nair was also one of the big buy for the KXIP; the team bought him for Rs 5.6 crore. Later, Bollywood actress-turned-business woman, used Right to Match (RTM) card to bring David Miller, Marcus Stoinis and Mohit Sharma back into her squad.
