IPL 2024 Auction: What happens to unsold players in IPL auction?

Even if the players don’t make it through the initial bidding frenzy, there’s still a chance for them to feature in IPL. Find out how

The IPL 2024 Auction is underway with all IPL franchises looking to strengthen their team in the mini auction. However, with a few slots remaining in the teams’ roster, a lot of players are remaining unsold. If you’re wondering what happens to the unsold players in the IPL 2024 Auction, we have you covered.

Even if the players don’t make it through the initial bidding frenzy, there’s still a chance. After the accelerated round is over, teams with slots to fill and budget flexibility can submit new lists with unsold players highlighted. This is where redemption happens. Underestimated talent that was swept under the rug in the heat of the initial bidding frenzy can find its home.

If the players remain unsold after the two-day auction ends, there is a good chance that they will get a chance to play in the Indian Premier League.

In the event of an injury or illness of any player on the IPL team, any unsold player from the pool can be contacted and ‘purchased’ by the IPL teams.

Finally, unsold players are also hired by teams to fill up practice teams for the main squad.
