VIVO IPL 2018 Auction: Full List of Players Going Under Hammer and Their Base Price

India’s flagship tournament, Indian Premier League is all set to commence its eleventh edition. Before the cricketing action beginning on April 4, the all-important players' auction will take place on January 27-28 in Bengaluru. VIVO IPL 2018 auction held in Bengaluru will see eight franchise pick players of their choices to form the best team line-up. Being cricketing planet’s biggest cash-rich tournament, IPL is all set to raise its bar higher in its latest season. The IPL 11 auction will witness a giant pool of 578 players including 360 Indian cricketers going under the hammer. This list has been trimmed down from an original list of 1122 players and finalised by the IPL Governing Council.

The final number of players are put in several base price brackets with the highest value being Rs 2 crore while lowest is Rs 20 lakhs. The governing council has allowed the franchise to retain a maximum of five players, by using one of the two combinations – having three pre-auction retentions and two Right-to-Match (RTM) card or retaining two players through retention in lead up to the auction and three RTMs. This list of 578 players is prepared after each IPL side submitted their retention list of players during pre-auction process. IPL 2018 Players Auction Schedule: Date, Time, Venue, Rules, Salary, Live Streaming and Telecast Details of 11th Indian Premier League.

The Right-to-Match (RTM) card can be used by the franchise on the day of the auction. The owners can use this to get a player from their team (but not retained during pre-auction) at the same price bid by another franchise. For example, Gautam Gambhir of Kolkata Knight Riders who was not retained in pre-auction retention can be bought by the franchise by using RTM for the same amount bid by any of the other seven franchises. Kings XI Punjab (KXIP), Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) have three RTM cards to use.

Here's a complete list of 578 players including big names such as Ben Stokes (England), Chris Gayle (West Indies), Mitchell Starc (Australia) along with Indian star players R Ashwin, Shikhar Dhawan, Gautam Gambhir, Yuvraj Singh and their base price.
