The 2026 IPL auction was held in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday (December 16): Here’s the updated squad for all ten teams, including new signings and final teams for the upcoming Indian Premier League edition.
A total of 77 players were sold at the auction, out of which 29 players were overseas. A total amount of INR 214.45 Cr was spent, with all ten teams completing their maximum quota of 25 players.
While Cameron Green headlined the event, going for INR 25.20 crore to become the highest overseas player in the tournament, the uncapped duo of Prashant Veer and Kartik Veer also created a stir. Both had a base price of INR 30 lakh, but were sold to Chennai Super Kings for INR 14.2 crore each.
Here’s how the teams stack up after the mini auction.
