Wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant ended his long-time relationship with the Delhi Capitals (DC) ahead of the upcoming auction.

According to a report in ESPNCricinfo, several Indian players, including Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant, and KL Rahul, have set their base price at Rs 2 crore for the IPL mega auction. These cricketers are expected to attract more money from franchises like Punjab Kings, DC, LSG, KKR, and RCB, who need a skipper.

Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal, former players of the Rajasthan Royals, are part of the auction pool. Meanwhile, Mohammed Shami, who has not played since the 2023 ODI World Cup final due to injury, has also listed himself at a base price of Rs 2 crore after being released by the Gujarat Titans.

The mega auction is expected to see competition for top players. Teams like the Punjab Kings, who have the largest remaining budget of Rs 110.5 crore, have an edge in acquiring big names. Other teams will also focus on securing key players to balance their lineups with both capped and uncapped players.
