The IPL 2021 will see franchises like Mumbai Indians (MI), Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Kings XI Punjab (KXIP), Rajasthan Royals (RR), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Delhi Capitals (DC), Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) go on war but off-field.
A list of 292 players, will go under the hammer at the auction for the 2021 season in Chennai. The IPL had announced that 1,114 players had registered initially and the eight franchises submitted their shortlisted players. The final list consisted of 292 players, out of which 164 are Indian, 125 overseas and 3 players from Associated nations.
The three-time champions CSK who finished in the seventh position in the IPL 2020, reportedly released a lot of players as they looked to revamp their Dad's Army. Teams like SRH and MI who have mostly retained their core squad will be looking to only solidify them with a few players.
The KXIP, RCB and KKR, on the other hand, may look to have increased their purse string and will now need strong players to help lift the squad. Ahead of the IPL 2021 player's auction, here is how one can view the event live on Television and on mobile.
