IPL 2026 Auction Timing, Venue, Remaining Purse Of All Teams, Available Slots, And All You Need To Know

 IPL 2026 auction is all set to happen on Tuesday, December 16, in Abu Dhabi. A total of 350 players will be up for auction as all ten franchises will be competing fiercely to buy them. Many big names like Cameron Green, Venkatesh Iyer, and Liam Livingstone are part of the auction and are expected to be sold for a huge price. The three-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders will have the biggest budget of Rs 64.3 crore. Ahead of this big event, here's what you need to know about the IPL 2026 mini auctions:

Green might get only Rs 18 crore

There is a lot of talk that Green could beat Mitchell Starc (who was sold for Rs 24.75 crore) to become the most expensive overseas player in the IPL auction.

 However, there is a catch to this.

Even if Green's bid goes above Rs 25 crore, his actual salary for the season will still be Rs 18 crore (USD 1.9 million).

The bid amount and the player's salary will be different things.

 The bid amount is taken from the team's annual player purse.

This is because of the "maximum-fee" rule in the IPL.

 It says that a foreign player's maximum fee at a mini auction will be the lower of two values: the highest retention slab (Rs 18 crore) and the highest price from the previous mega auction (Rs 27 crore for Rishabh Pant in 2025).

When will the IPL 2026 mini auction take place?

The IPL 2026 mini auction will be held on Tuesday, December 16.

What time will the IPL 2026 mini auction start?

The IPL 2026 mini auction will start at 2:30 PM IST.

Where will the IPL 2026 mini auction take place?

The IPL 2026 mini auction will take place at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi.

Number of slots available: The 10 teams need to fill 77 slots with a total budget of Rs 237.55 crore.

 Here are the details for each team:

CSK: 9 slots (4 overseas)

Delhi Capitals: 8 slots (5 overseas)
