With the IPL governing council meeting scheduled for next month, there might be some ray of hope for the players allied with the sacked IPL franchise, Kochi Tuskers Kerala.
According to the media reports, Kochi players can be put on auction once again and the IPL governing council is deliberating various ideas to allow the other franchises to spend some extra bucks on them in the IPL-5 auctions.
The players are yet to receive a small part of their payments from the terminated Kerala franchise.
However, its learned that the BCCI is likely to provide the players with an opportunity to earn their price in the next IPL auctions.
The likes of Mahela Jayawardene, VVS Laxman, Muttiah Muralitharan, Sreesanth, RP Singh, Brendon McCullum and Parthiv Patel could all now be free to sign for one of the remaining nine IPL sides after representing Kochi last season.
Earlier this year, the BCCI confirmed that Kochi Tuskers have had their Indian Premier League license revoked.
The Kerala-based franchise was one of two new sides added to the competition for the 2011 season alongside Pune Warriors and was sold to a consortium called Rendezvous Sports World in an auction for US$ 333.33million.
Both Kochi and Pune had appealed for their initial bids to be reduced after the originally scheduled 18 matches per season was lowered to 14 for each side, but their case was rejected.
Reports suggested that Kochi's current problems are related to defaults on their payments, but while BCCI president N Srinivasan confirmed they would no longer be part of the lucrative Twenty20 league he did not expand on the reasons.
