The IPL auction for 2026 concluded on Tuesday, with teams focused on addressing their weaknesses. This year’s auction was unique compared to previous years, as teams were initially quiet but later spent heavily on Indian uncapped players. Prashant Veer and Kartik Sharma emerged as the highest-paid uncapped players in history, with CSK acquiring both for ₹14.2 crore each. Aquib Nabi Dar and Mukul Chowdhary also got a high price, while some of the reputable and proven players sold at their base price. KKR bought Cameron Green for Rupees 25.20 crore, and with that, Green became the highest-paid Overseas player, surpassing Mitchel Starc.
