So excited to see what happens,\u201d Williams commented ahead of the auction. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cI think there\u2019d be countless, but we\u2019ve probably got down to four or five different main possibilities of how we think it will work out. But again, auctions can be unpredictable, so we continue to throw left field ideas that might happen, but we\u2019re really, really comfortable with our plans and looking forward to the auction,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>With seven slots to fill and \u20b93.35 crore in the purse, RCB will be looking to add more local and overseas talent in the auction.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cWith five players in the Indian side from RCB the other night, it\u2019s a really good nucleus of Indian players. We\u2019ve got some really exciting overseas talent and are looking to add to our squad at the auction with both overseas and local talent. So I think we have a really strong squad looking forward to the season ahead,\u201d Williams said as he prepares for his first auction. <\/p>\r\n\r\n",
