15.81-carat gem, dubbed "The Sakura," fetched $29.3 million in Hong Kong to become the most expensive purple-pink diamond ever to sell at auction.

The largest diamond ever cut in Russia - a 100.94 carat stone called the Alrosa Spectacle - will be auctioned in Geneva later this month.

Eight overseas players and two Indian players have chosen to be slotted in the highest bracket of the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction with a base price of two crore rupees ($275,000), India’s cricket board (BCCI) said on Thursday.

In a statistic that highlights the popularity of the Indian Premier League and the tough competition that it is, a total of 1097 cricketers have registered their names for the mini-auction that will take place in Chennai on February 18.
