IPL 2026 Auction: Record Breaking Bids
Money talked, and it talked loud. The IPL 2026 Auction will go down in history as the day the valuation of cricketers reached stratospheric new levels.
The 30 Crore Barrier Broken
For the first time in history, a player has crossed the 30 Crore INR mark. The bidding war for India's premier all-rounder left jaws on the floor, with Mumbai Indians eventually securing his services after a fierce battle with RCB.
Young Talent Rewarded
It wasn't just the superstars. Several U-19 players from the recent World Cup victory became overnight millionaires. Franchises are clearly investing in the future, scouting talent deeper than ever before.
Strategic Shifts
Data analytics played a huge role this year. Teams came prepared with distinct strategies, targeting specific matchups rather than just big names. The 'Moneyball' approach to cricket is fully matured in 2026.
