Talking about DC's decision to not use RTM for Rishabh Pant at ₹27 crore after LSG raised bid, DC co-owner Parth Jindal said, "If I used RTM at that price, I would have ruined the auction for DC." He added, "Pant at ₹18 crore is a different proposition and at ₹27 crore, he is a completely different proposition."
