IPL 2026 Final Playing Teams, Captain & Full Players List

IPL 2026 Final Playing Teams, Captain & Full Players List: All 10 franchises in the Indian Premier League 2026 are ready to enter the battle to become the champions of the IPL 2026 trophy, with their strongest players retained and newly picked from the auction.

The IPL 2026 auction brought up some interesting trends. While Australian Cameron Green was the costliest player at Rs 25.20 crore, it was the uncapped Indian players who were the real winners. Prashant Veer and Kartik Sharma became the joint-most-expensive uncapped Indian players to be signed by an IPL franchise, receiving Rs 14.20 crore each from CSK during the IPL auction in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday. The 10 teams spent a combined Rs 215.45 crore on 77 players, with 29 of them from overseas.
