I thought he and Kapil were blacklisted because they engaged a rival t20 league

but at the time for a name like that, and if the story is true, his brand was worth at least a mil

@Halliwell

We have to be on our toes, the amount of fake news spewing around.

@natty_forever

My pardner not even proof reading his news these days

@brians_da_best

I have never heard of this story and lara was in the ICL in 2007. retired in 2007 and suffered a fractured forearm in early january 2008 playing for Trinidad(january 7th to be exact)so that would have ruled him out of even the auction that year which was held on the 24th of january. Indian sports media, in is current dispensation, has a proclivity for fake news and jingoism that is broadcasted no matter how fanciful it sounds.

Don't know if he wanted a million,but it appeared to me that before that offer was rejected, he was all over Town probably in an effort to influence the powers that be by saying that Tendulkar was the best batsman in the World at that time.
