I think Joe is going into auction first time. Like some others have realized, lower the base price, get into the auction on the lower price basis and then let the bidding war do the trick.
Having a higher base price in IPL is okay if someone has been performing in IPL and in form as well as young enough for next 3 years.
Joe can get a bid tomorrow though because he can bowl spin, which will be useful. There is not enough representation of English coaches or think tank in IPL. Paddy Upton was only one I think. He has worked with some English cricketers in BPL. If he was around he could have got one or two more bids for England cricketers.

Well summarised, though I am not sure how much lower Root can go with his base price because he has to forfeit a percentage of his earnings to the ECB. For example it cost Ben Stokes £100k out of his ECB contract.
International T20 performances Root has delivered in the big matches and IMO a better bat than Kane Williamson who went for 300 lakh.

Stokes paid back £75,000 in earnings, Root would pay similar as he is also a multi format player for England. If Root went for his 200 lakh base rate, earnings wise he would pick up the equivalent of an extra months wage after deductions.
ECB central test contracts are worth in the region of £700k as a basic salary, where as an ODI central contract is approx £190k. I suppose when the next ICC future tours programme kicks in, Root will eventually gets his IPL contract presuming England play no international cricket in May.
