About the 2022 auction
How the auction worked and what changed from the one before
The 2022 auction was a mega auction, held at the start of a new cycle of player contracts: each franchise kept only a handful of its players and bought the rest of its squad in the room. That is why 204 players were sold, against 57 at the 2021 auction.
The franchises spent ₹551.70 crore, up 27.8% on the ₹431.70 crore spent at the last mega auction, in 2018.
Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans bought at an IPL auction for the first time, as the league grew from eight franchises to ten.
