The auctioneer Hugh Edmeades is doing fine now and the IPL auction will resume at 3.30pm IST.
According to reports, the 60-year-old collapsed on stage because of low blood pressure.
"He has been attended to by a doctor. He is doing fine, his blood pressure dropped suddenly and that was the reason for his sudden collapse. We will know more once he has a thorough check-up," a BCCI source told PTI.
