You have to understand that all rounders are very valuable in T20, and international quality all rounders more so because the teams can select only 4 foreign players. He is also in very good form as seen in the recent Australia and India T20I series. Add to all of these the fact that he is very friendly and popular among the fans, and you can understand why he is getting so much money. I think he is worth that money definitely.

The guys over at CricMetric have Watson providing $678,314 worth of value in 2015 and $398,263 in 2014. Even in 2013 when he won the MVP, he only provided $1.64 million worth of value. Just based on the historical numbers, this is a massive overpay in terms of production.

hhhhmmmmm..... think our death eating poster scooped the IPL auction !
Ever wondered who is Nathu Singh? From a base price of Rs. 10 lakh to a whopping Rs. 3.2 crore, it’s time for Singh – a little-known fast bowler from Rajasthan – to hire a financial advisor.
Most of the people would not know that this 20-year-old son of a wire factory worker is perhaps India's fastest bowler at present. Nathu averages around 140 kmph in a spell and at times even touches 145 kmph – a thing that is not so common in India.
He is fast and is described as India's fast bowling future by legends Rahul Dravid and Glenn McGrath. With just 6 first-class matches under your belt, who expects you to catch a selector's attention? But Nathu is making the right kind of noises in the domestic cricketing circle.
While picking him in the India Board XI squad to face South Africa for a two-day warm-up match last year, chairman of selectors Sandeep Patil said the boy had ‘the X-Factor’ that selectors always search for. And that spark in Nathu was also noticed by none other than Dravid. And today, even the IPL wants him badly.
