After record-breaking bids for Varun Chakravarthy and Shivam Dube, the franchises were not stopping for anyone as one of the biggest surprises was the final price of Prayas Ray Barman.

Fast bowlers who missed the last edition of IPL- Ishant Sharma and Varun Aaron got their new franchise teams this time.
While Jaydev Unadkat got the highest bid among domestic players alongside uncapped Varun Chakravarthy, veteran Indian player Yuvraj Singh remained unsold for the first time in an IPL auction.

Following Gambhir's retirement and the emergence of the young talent it is keeping some senior players on their toes, who are out of the national side.
