Australia’s star all-rounder Cameron Green has registered for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 mini-auction that is set to take place on December 15. Green’s name was missing in the mega auction as he had a back surgery which kept him out of action for months. Green is set to be on several franchises’ wishlist considering the amount of firepower with bat and ball he promises.
Last time Green went into the auction, he was roped in for Rs 17.50 crore by Mumbai Indians (MI). In the next season, he was traded to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).
As many as 45 players have opted for a base price of Rs 2 crore. This list includes the likes of Steve Smith who went unsold in the mega auction. Recently released by their respective franchises, Ravi Bishnoi, Venkatesh Iyer, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Liam Livingstone and others have opted for highest base price as well.
Australia's wicketkeper-batter Josh Inglis has registered for the auction as well. Punjab Kings (PBKS) revealed that they released Inglis because he won't be available for the entirety of the season. It is yet to be seen whether a franchise is interested in roping in services of a player who may not be available for full season.
