The IPL mega auction is scheduled for a few days from now. Every time some players become millionaires in a few bids. In the last auction, Mitchell Starc received 24.75 crore, while Pat Cummins received 20.50 crore. In this edition, BCCI increases the purse to 120 crore for every franchise. Teams like Punjab Kings and RCB have a big amount in their purse for the mega auction. So, there is a very high chance that any player will get the highest bid in IPL history this time. We are here to discuss which players have the potential to earn the highest amounts in the upcoming mega auction.
Rishabh Pant
Indian T20 star batter Rishabh Pant was released by the Delhi Capitals in the retention period. In his last season of IPL, he got 16 crores as IPL salary from the Delhi Capitals. But there are very high chances that Pant will get the highest bid in IPL history in the upcoming mega auction. Teams like the Punjab Kings, RCB, Gujarat Titans, and LSG will surely bid big for him in the auction.
Arshdeep Singh
Surprisingly, Arshdeep Singh was released by the Punjab Kings, and they retained only two uncapped players. Punjab fans thought Punjab had a large amount in their purse, so they went for the RTM card used for Arshdeep. But last week, Arshdeep removed all his photos with Punjab from all his social media accounts. Still, there are teams like RCB that can bid big for this T20 specialist bowler.
Jos Buttler
One more surprising name of the released players was Jos Buttler, who was released by the Rajasthan Royals. Jos has the potential to win the match one-handed. No doubt teams will bid high for him in the mega auction. In the last edition, he was retained by RR for 10 CR.
