The auction for the third edition of the Kerala Cricket League (KCL 2026) is underway, with 156 players set to go under the hammer. The state’s domestic players are split into three pools, and the six franchises will round out their squads after retaining 17 players each. Each team has to pick between 16 and 20 players. Every franchise gets an auction purse of ₹50 lakh, and whatever they spent on retentions will be deducted before bidding starts.
