The smartest-looking lady made the smartest bid to snare Kieron Pollard, the most sought-after cricketer in the Indian Premier League’s (IPL) third player auction held in Mumbai on Tuesday afternoon.

Nita Ambani, Mumbai Indians’ owner, walked into the bidding room at a five-star hotel here wearing a newly-designed team T-shirt. She later said she was sure of what to purchase. It is a different matter that three other teams - Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers and Kolkata Knight Riders - had walked in with similar plans. However, it was Nita Ambani’s superior, secret, bid that prevailed.

The bidding for Pollard began at a base price of $200,000 and soon turned into a hot battle between Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore and Kolkata. Every passing bid of $10,000 saw all the four teams locked in a tie when the entire purse of $750,000 was emptied. Lalit Modi, the IPL chief, then called for the tie-breaker rule where all three franchisees concerned had to quote an amount - a silent bid which wouldn’t be revealed - and the team quoting the highest amount could buy Pollard.

The Knight Riders were the first to back off at this stage, leaving the other three to slug it out. Nita Ambani wrote an amount slightly higher than Rs 6.5 crore (approximately $1.75m) which saw her pip rivals N Srinivasan (Chennai Super Kings) and Vijay Mallya (Royal Challengers). The idea, it seemed, was to keep in mind that the Kings and the Challengers would be missing out on the services of their costliest players this season - Andrew Flintoff and Kevin Pietersen - and so they would utilize that money to buy another player.

Mumbai Indians quoted a figure slightly higher than $1.5m and Pollard was theirs.

“The team strategy, discussed between Sachin Tendulkar, TA Sekar and Robin Singh was that we wanted a batting allrounder and we are happy to have him,” Nita Ambani, wife of CMD, Reliance Industries said after the successful bid.

Pollard technically emerged the costliest player of the IPL, as the money spent on him totals up to a mindboggling $1.75m. Ironically, according to the auction rules, the Trinindadian will only get $750,000. The rest of the amount ($1.55m) will go into the IPL kitty.

Mukesh Ambani’s Mumbai Indians have now exhausted their purse and will play no more part in the auctions.

Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) Chairman & Managing Director Mukesh Ambani was awarded the inaugural Dean’s Medal from the University of Pennsyvania’s Eduardo Glandt, Dean of the School of Engineering and Applied Science today.

The medal was awarded to Mr Ambani at a function here in recognition of his “visionary leadership” in the application of engineering and technology for the betterment of mankind. .

“The medal is an acknowledgement for Ambani’s ingenuity and initiative to usher in Reliance’s vertical integration journey from textiles into fibers, petrochemicals, petroleum refining and eventually oil and gas exploration and production. Today, Reliance is a global leader in polyester, petrochemicals and refining, including the world’s largest petroleum refinery complex at Jamnagar. His vision of energy security for India was realized through an aggressive exploration program which resulted in the world’s largest gas discovery in the year 2002. The field eventually doubled gas production in India,” a press release from the School said.

“Mukesh Ambani embodies what the engineering profession can contribute to a country, as someone who seeks to apply technology for the betterment of society,” Mr Glandt said.

Mr Ambani said in his acceptance speech that he would treasure this medal. “It is much more than the recognition of the modest contribution as a chemical engineer from India. It recognizes the collective achievement of the Reliance family and the creativity of over 25,000 engineers in Reliance. I dedicate this Medal to the indomitable spirit of our founder chairman, Dhirubhai Ambani and each and every member of the Reliance family,” he said.

Mr Ambani joined RIL, founded by his father Dhirubhai Ambani, in 1981 after receiving a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering from the University of Mumbai and pursuing a master’s degree at Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business.

Among Mr Ambani’s numerous honors are the 2007 US-India Business Council “Global Vision” Award for Leadership; the 2006 “ET Business Leader of the Year” Award by the Economic Times and the first NDTV-Profit “Global Indian Leader Award” in 2006.

In 2008, Mr. Ambani was elected Vice Chairman of the Executive Committee of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. He is a member of the Prime Minister’s Council on Trade and Industry and of the Board of Governors of the National Council of Applied Economic Research. He is also Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore, and a member of the Indo-US CEOs Forum, the International Advisory Board of Citigroup, the International Advisory Board of the National Board of Kuwait, and the Advisory Council for Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business, among other appointments.
